Nice ANSI!
I also tested a script to actually post ansis, as it is not that easy to
do that with synchronet tools.

Try 'jsexec postmsg.js' from your exec directory (or anywhere if your exec directory is part of your PATH), and you'll see how easy it is to post a message to a sub-board.

it never worked for me. i can post nothing other then colored ascii
using the postmsg.js as soon as i posted an Ansi with real Ansi blocks, the Ansi got destroyed or shifted line be line.

I have that same problem.

Post a link the problematic file. If it has really long lines, that
could be a problem.

Check this one https://github.com/chairmanmow/synchronet_ad_poster
i have not tested it myself since, before i knew about its existence, i asked claude ai to help me create my own script. But it looks good to
me and should do the job.
Let me know if it works for you.
None of your ansi's made it correctly in slymail, probably works on the normal board though. Wondering if Multimail will handle these things
better or more elegant...

I don't think MultiMail supports ANSI at all. I'm fairly certain Slymail does,
though. Double check your config.
MM does support it, but you have to hit a key first to display it, and I
am not sure how well it handles screens created without DOS CRLFs.

Ah, good to know. Thanks. I've never seen anything but black and white
in MM, but I'm not an avid user of it, either.

ÚÄÄÄ HiSTORY.
: Funtopia BBS first became active in
1990s, running RemoteAccess +
McMail. It hosted a variety of files
FTNs, such as SpeedNet and
RaveNet, over just one analogue modem dial-up
line. This was all
managed by a 386 DX 33 MHz Olivetti computer wit
540 MB HDD and an
Elsa Microlink modem.:

ÚÄÄÄ WHY A bbS TODAY?
: Today, Funtopia BBS is not only a
project dedicated to preserving
early communication technologies &
technological nostalgia, but also
a place to learn, experiment, play & excha
ideas with like-minded
people. It's simply meant to be a fun &
creative hobby.:
