- Hold on.
- There is ones on:
- Fred Fish disks --> 221, 324, 377 (those are all "AnsiED")
- 378 - ANSIMaster
- 448 - PicToANSI (Amiga ANSI only!)
- 449 - Iff2Ansi (same)
-
- So there you go!!
-
- Try the ones on 377 and 378!! I think I have used them and
- remember that they support ANSI painting and animation.
- The Last two use a strange hack in the Amiga's
- ANSI support to allow the encoding of graphics (as in bit-mapped picture)
- using short-feeds and the tops of letters to render pixels.
- You may have received a "DMS" file from somebody
- that had a advertisement with graphics in it, that is how it is
- done.
-
- but it ain't IBM ANSI, so it will screw all non-amiga computers up,
- big time.
- Did you know that it is possible to redefine a PC user's
- keyboard using ANSI codes???? What a frightening thought,
- from the PC users point of view. You could actually define
- the f10 key as "del c:*.*". (evil grin, but faking it).
