    Point to Point communication established. ;]

    read You loud and clear, Sir.
    In return I am testing some Cyan line.
    And above that light Cyan.
    And now Cyan Background with Black text.

    I wish You a nice day

    Golded+ geeft de ANSI escape codes niet goed weer.
    GROK beweert dat Eight-bit characters (ASCII 128–255) en non-printing low-order codes (ASCII 2–31) zijn verboden, met als enige uitzondering het soft carriage return-teken 0x8D (soft CR) volgens FTS-0004.
    Als dat klopt dan is 0x1B die essentieel is voor ANSI escape codes verboden.

    I wish You a nice day

    Thank You for You answer. I assume You see no colors in GoldEd+ as I do
    in both Icy Mail and on Mystic BBS.

    That's shame.

    Hope I got You right.

    Have a good day, Sir.

    Sorry for writing in Dutch.
    The problem is not that Golded+ does not display it. I can live with that.
    The problem is that it uses ESC (ASCII 27 / 0x1B) which is forbidden in FTS-0004.
    That icy_tools chooses to accept them nevertheless when they still occur is allowed of course.
    And have a look at AI translation tools. They are exellent.

    I guess I overestimated the importance of FTS-0004
    Never officially retracted but still dated.

    Here I can view your ANSI
    But here I don't have unicode which I have in Golded+
    Seems I cannot have both at the same time.

    I wish You a nice day
