- ANSIDRAW (c) - Version 2.4 Copywrite 1985 Amrich Enterprises
-
- ANSIDRAW is a program designed to create, read and write color screens and save
- files in the ANSI.SYS format or as an ASCII text file. (Maximum of 23 lines per
- screen.) Color menus used in batch files or with the RBBS are now easy to make.
-
- ASCII text files can be linked together using DOS copy command to combine files
- (i.e. copy file1.ext + file2.ext file3.ext.) When saving screens if you do not
- indicate a file extension ANSIDRAW will default to .ANS for ANSI type files and
- ASC for ASCII type. When loading files if no extension is indicated the default
- extension will be ANS. When the file does not have an extension, use the period
- as the last character of the file name.
-
- The function keys are used to type some of the IBM graphic characters. The fkey
- definitions can be changed by using Ctrl-function key. Characters which are not
- shown can still be input by using the Alt-(ASCII code number from the numerical
- keypad).
-
- Blocks of screen data can be moved using the Block Move Function Shift-F3. The
- block must be defined before the arrow keys will move it. After selecting Block
- Move use the Home key to define the upper left corner and the End key to define
- the lower right corner.
