    Most DOVE-Net nodes aren't going to be interpretting those PCBoard color codes, just so you know. :-)

    Good catch. We swapped the PCBoard codes for native ANSI on the newer post.

    Speaking of color codes, what happens when a Non-Synchronet board on DoveNet sees a CTRL-A code converted ANSI?

    Someone was saying they won't display the ANSI and would just see all the codes.

    They'd need to pick the CTRL-A option to "Expand to ANSI" or just "Strip" in their QWK settings on the dovenet server.

    All boards (nodes) on DOVE-Net have the option (for their QWK packets created on VERT):
    - strip Ctrl-A Codes
    - expand to ANSI
    - leave-in

    Someone was saying they won't display the ANSI and would just see all the codes.

    If they're expanding (converted) to ANSI, and the terminal is ANSI, they shouldn't see any codes, just the color changes.

    Ahh, then it should work with any BBS. That's what I was thinking. Thanks.

    Thanks for the heads-up on PCBoard color code handling.
