ANSI fed into DEC's VT terminals that xterm(1) copied and all the other terminal emulators since then, e.g. gnome-terminal, so xterm or similar should handle the ANSI escape sequences he needs. (I've found gnome-terminal lacking in a few but they've fixed bugs eventually.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ansi_terminal Cheers, Ralph. -- Next meeting: Bournemouth, Tuesday 2011-11-01 20:00 Meets, Mailing list, IRC, LinkedIn, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ How to Report Bugs Effectively: http://goo.gl/4Xue
