• Good ANSI Viewer

    From Lith@VERT/ASIRTA to All on Sunday, November 01, 2015 10:44:23
    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?

    Thanks,

    Lith,

    Try PabloDraw, it's pretty good for a viewer, but I prefer The Draw for editing.

    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.

    Syncdraw is a decent ansi creator, not good to just view ansi files tho.

    There's SyncView which simply displays ANSI, but I assume he wants something with at least next/prev and slideshow capabilities.

    I'm not sure if I've actually made builds of it public anywhere though... the source is in CVS!

    Well for one thing around here.. Mediacom dumped USENET. no more alt.bin files if you know what I mean. That pretty much broke my porn habit. Can't even
    do that anymore.. They was one of last providers to carry USENET and dumped it..
    But yet my bill hasn't gone down. There was allot of other things I liked in USENET How many other people on here.. have had there USENET dropped because of grandma clickers and email readers? I like bookface but all that is a giant BBS..
    gee wished I would have thought of that.. talk about slam dunk. How many remember
    the days of ASCII porn? Funny stuff..

    There used to be this site called puretna.com, they were a porn-torrent site with ratios. Pretty cool! But they disappeared like all the good ones do.

    Well, for wares, unless you're doing carrier stuff, torrents are usually the best way to go these days. I don't do warez though, too much good free/open- source stuff available to bother.

    i use astraweb for my newsgroups. i dont download binaries from them anymore, but i bought a block of gigs and they made good on the deal and i've been using them for 3 years.

    newsgroups have the same shit as torrent sites, but sometimes files get deleted off teh servers and with torrent sites you can get some older stuff that you cant get any other place.

    the stuff i download is tv shows and movies.
    i'm too lazy to watch the shows when they air and i havent seen a good movie in over 10 years.
