Ascii editor with colours!

[Daniele]

Hello guys

I do not remember the name of the Ascii editor with colours

that I used in the past '90 to edit the pages of my BBS

running with AmiExpress.

Can you help me reminding me the name of this Ascii editor?

Thanks

My favorite was LA Draw. It's on Aminet. On the MS-DOS side, TheDraw and ACiDDraw are good.

Browse the text/edit dir on Aminet, there's a lot of them.

I always used HyperANSI back in the 90s....

I have just tried Hyper Ansi but it do not allow to me to open text files do u know another program ANSI editor that allow to me to edit and put colour on .txt pages?

Thanks

ASCII is just a character encoding scheme, and it doesn't know anything about colors--that's what ANSI escape sequences do. Many of the ANSI editors out there are screen based, so they work in 80x25 chunks. Regardless, you should be able to rename your .txt file to .ans to force a program to load it if it won't load it directly.

Do exist on this site an ex-sysop of an Amiga BBS that can remember me a good program Ansi Editor with colours to edit AmiExpress pages?

Thanks

Well, I recommended LA Draw. It's easy to use. (I haven't run a bulletin board since my C64 days, but I did do screens for local PC and Amiga boards back in the day.)

@rev the one I used in the past is very simple and useful

I am looking the exact program I used in the '90 I am looking into ANC, ACU, LSD compilation disk but it's hard to find ! If anybody would give me one hand.

[Trev]

That doesn't give us much to go on. You could start with .http://www.amiexpress.co.uk.

@Trev

William of http://www.amiexpress.co.uk. sent me soon PlusED21.lha that was the program he used but maybe
I have found the one I was looking for and I discovered
it on LSD Legal Tools Disk 31 and the program is
DI ANSI EDITOR V2.8.It Looks like the one I used in the
past: black screen and colours at the bottom.
I hope is this!
