    Great work! It's nice see some ASCII on here! Has anyone tested
    uploading ANSI files to see how they display? I'm curious what 80x25

    I've tried uploading ANSI from my board and it has not worked out for me :). Possibly because I'm not using the right editor? I am not sure. Been meaning to try uploading some ANSI from the other WWIV boards, but haven't had the chance yet.

    Maybe you can give it a shot and see what happens?

    Sure! How do I upload a file again? I'll try one of my other BBS "ads" that know is formatted correctly for BBS postings and maybe it'll work? I know with those I have to use dosbox, load tdraw, save in a very specific way .. I'll have to shake off the rust and give it a go once I figure out how to upload them. It would be nice to see peoples work posted the old school way as opposed to always waiting for art packs to release (as awesome as they are :) a bit of old school doesn't hurt.

    I'm not sure there's an option to upload a message .. at least not in the regular line editor. Maybe someone else can chime in with some advice, but it seems like you just have to paste or do an ASCII upload with your term program or something.

    Within my menu editor it says it's //upload from the main and or in my case message menu, however the feature does not appear to do anything, or at least, does not pull up a secondary menu or anything.

    Menu Key: //UPLOAD
    Menu Text: Upload Post
    Actions: [Edit] cmd: 'UploadPost'
    Help Text: Upload Text File to Post in next Email or Message
    Sysop Log: UPLOAD Instance:
