  • Question about BBS Ads (Ansi)

    From Captain Obvious@21:1/157 to All on Sat Dec 28 19:31:00 2019
    So I have never done any sort of BBS Ads. I can manually upload an ansi as a message and it shows up fine but if I use mutil to post a text (ansi) it
    comes out all screwed up.

    What are you guys using to get this done properly?

    When you save an ansi in mystic it saves it in block mode, so lines are
    not over 80 characters. Things go screwy when that happens. It's the
    same block mode used in thedraw, so if you save an ansi in the draw in
    block mode I think you could post it with mutil.
