: ... with ANSI.SYS loaded in the CONFIG.SYS ansi-art looks just fine in a 
: dosbox, no matter whether you select full screen or window. It all shows up 
: full color. And if the PC is fast enough, one can even view animations in a 
: dozbox. And all this funny stuff just with the TYPE command ...

: Best,

: Paul


Well on my dosbox, running DOS 3.20 with no colour and no graphics, 
it didn't. The type command produced exactly the picture I posted. 

All other ASCII and ANSI animations have been OK - Pearl Jam 
appeared in ASCII _not_ ANSI - no doubt because it was written 
specifically for colour and/or for graphics mode. I don't know now 
because I have deleted the original file. It is no big deal anyway :-) 
    
Bye,
