  • ENiG PETSCII/ATASCII/RIP!

    From NuSkooler@21:1/121 to All on Fri Nov 13 13:51:31 2026
    ENiGMA 1/2 BBS now speaks to more than just ANSI terminals! Three new kinds
    of callers are now supported:

    * PETSCII - Commodore-style terminals, with native .seq art.

    * ATASCII - Atari 8-bit terminals, with native .ata art.

    * RIP - RIPscrip graphics on top of ANSI. SyncTERM and IcyTerm
    have been tested the most, definitely welcome some testers!

    Each one comes with a small optional set of starter menus, offered by "oputil.js config new", so there is something to see on day one. Menus
    can also branch on the caller's terminal with the new TE[...] ACS code.

    Existing boards are not changed by any of this: ANSI callers see what
    they always did, and nothing new is turned on until you enable it.

    Nice :) I will test it on my Enigma installation.

    Let me know how it goes! Which "system" do you plan on trying out with it?

    Hi NuSkooler,

    my setup: ENiGMA 1/2 0.6.0-beta (updated
    yesterday to current master) on Debian Linux
    with its own Node 22, running alongside Mystic
    on the same server.

    It carries fsxNet and GooseNet, which I host
    myself, and exchanges mail with Mystic via
    BinkP. Access is via telnet, SSH and a web
    terminal at enigma.g00r00.com. The theme is a
    custom one that looks like my Mystic board.

    PETSCII, ATASCII and RIP are not enabled yet.
    I'd probably start with PETSCII for C64
    callers. Any tips on what to watch out for?

    Greetings
    Michael
