    Hi, textmode friends! Nice to meet you here, at the USENET realm...

    Come and check TheVaultBBS.ddns.net (telnet 2323) and test The Vault
    TV, a
    "textmode broadcasting" that shows several hundreds of curated ANSI and
    ASCII
    art... you dont have to do anything more than press "T" key and enjoy.
    24/7 !!

    Thanks for watching, and dont forget to participate (we have
    advertising
    section too! As a real TV ;)

    Hi, I have tried with various terminal emulators and I can't see it
    properly. The text at the beginning is appering ok (hit ESC twice...) but
    then everything is scrambled.

    Do you recommend a particular setup / terminal emulator?

    Thanks.
