  • Odd ANSI Issue I am Having an Issue With

    From BBS ( /u/ayukawataur https://www.reddit.com/user/ayukawataur ) to All on Wed Jul 22 19:00:32 2026

    I have been working an an ANSI Graphic as the WELCOM.ANS file for a pet project of mine. Unfortunately I have not done much in this realm in over 30 years, so I get what I paid for I guess?
    Anyway, I made a simple graphic in THEDRAW 4.63 on MSDOS. The graphic is 80 characters wide and 25 characters tall. It does not use any fancy colours or fancy fonts--only simple fonts that came with THEDRAW.
    When the ANSI shows on SYNCTERM or other Terminal Client, it is missing a single block in the lower right hand corner (See first image), but the same is not true of what the BBS is seeing (See second image).
    Do you--any of you--have any idea of what I am doing wrong here because I am really confused as to what I have done to break something so simple. submitted by /u/ayukawataur [link] [comments]
