DT> I honestly can't remember details on why its a problem.

  I'm not asking you why it's a problem (after all that's for me to find out,
no? :) ) I'm asking you what good 128, or even 1000, *SPACES* (the ones you
create with the long key at mid bottom of your keyboard) will do. Are you sure
you don't mean *CHARACTERS* ?

DT> I tried loading the file made by LordMenu into Pablo Draw.

  As I said before, LordMenu does nothing wrong. It produces perfect ANSI
sequences -- at least when I run it. If L.O.R.D. chokes, it's *THAT* program
that has a serious bug.

  Can you send me a copy of one of your problem 3rdalt-files, maybe I might
have better luck solving your problem. If you don't know how to send it via
FidoNet you can try sending it to "b (at) felten (dot) se".

DT> I just hoped that someone with more experience working with ANSI data
DT> would know how to fix the program so it worked reliably.

  But of course! No problem. If only I get satisfactory answers to my
question. :)
