Anyone know of a good ANSI Viewer where you can view 100's of ANSI files quickly? I used Acid draw, but it can't view some older ANSI files. Also, it crashes sometimes when going through the ANSI files.
Thedraw takes too long to open up and view ANSI files when you want to look at 100s of them. But, it does work with all the ANSI files which I try to view.
Is there another good ANSI viewer/creator besides TheDraw and Acidview where you can view 100s of files at a time?
Back in my DOS days, I loved this little utility called IDCSHELL. It is a menu-drive utility that I used to view ANSI files (among other things). It's
a lot like Midnight Commander for Linux.
You'll have to load ANSI.SYS in your config.sys file, but once you do, you
can just select and then view your ansi's to your hearts content.
If you call Cyberia (cyberia.darktech.org) you'll find IDC40.ZIP in the sysop uploads directory.
