Question: Help! How to see ASCII art in tin

I am using tin now, but I can't see ASCII arts on the screen.  Do I 
need to change something to read those?  Thanks!!

BTW, I can read if I use pine.

Tin will filter out any characters smaller than " ", the ascii
value of space. You can modify tin source page.c to let tin pass
the character 033, but had better to wrap show_page with
puts("\033[0m") to restore your screen in case a wild ASCII arts

Is there a patch for that or could you please point me how to make the 
modification?  I am not good at C programming.... 


Thanks!
