    Has anything changed in recent updates to synchronet ?

    My ansi characters are show up as ask ### as are some other menus, like Bulletings and when reading messages.


    Not sure what I did LOL, so thought I would ask if anybody else has expereinced different output on their bbs screens?

    i think you are talking about ascii. check your personal users settings.
    looks like the bbs is converting it for you.

    No.
    Maybe check your terminal settings in your default settings area.
