Hi,
I currently run a BBS on my BBC Micro (beebs.ddns.net for info), its running
over telnet and supports vt100, ANSI and Viewdata/Teletext (on a machine that
supports this i.e. a BBC Micro or Acorn Archimedes). With the machine running
the BBS most of the time I don't actually get to use it so I was hoping to
transition to SBBS but cannot figure out how to send the correct control codes
to send viewdata to a BBC Micro client, I've tried a few different formats of
files created in a teletext editor (replacing the .msg menu files) but on the
BBC Micro it displays the control codes as text rather than interpreting them
as teletext control codes over terminal. Is what I'm trying to achieve possible
within the currenet parameters of SBBS?
Many thanks,
Fred
