Is it possible to install IBM PC ANSI fonts for BBS connections? I
run an old-style DOS-based BBS at bbs.togbbs.com. issh picks up the
screen colors and ANSI positioning perfectly, but the lines that the
IBM ANSI fonts is capable of of course do not show.

The best non iphone program out there that replicates an IBM screen
perfectly is Syncterm at http://sourceforge.net/projects/syncterm/ .

Thanks for your assistance.

Regards,
Stephen Knell

Hey, just a quick update on this. I've put some work into this and it
will be part of Beta 3. Check out the screen shots in this forum
titled bbs_ansi1-4.png. Hope you like them!

Fantastic! A new genre of portable BBSing is near!

Well maybe not, but thanks for testing on the real BBS.
