- ANSIBits.e By Edward Farrow
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- ANSI Codes are simple and can be used for anything from fancy output and
- input styles to bulletin board system displays.
- ANSI Codes in Amiga E are very simple to do! All you have to do is use
- the built in Amiga E keyword `\e'.

- Code Effect Notes
- ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~~
- 0m = Normal - Always finish your line with this as it makes sure your
- code doesnt go haywire. Also use it to switch off
- atributes.
- 1m = Bold
- 2m = White
- 3m = Italic - Useful for things like quotes and usage information.
- 4m = Underlined
- 7m = Reversed - Reverse text can be used for all sorts of things but is
- best used sparingly! Too much can annoy users.
-
- * Anything higher than 7m tends to be system dependant (although 33m is *
- * blue text) So it is best not to use them... *
-
-
- *NOTE* ANSI Codes for BBS' will be different! BBS' have the ability to
- display a whole host of colours and codes while being 100% compatible with
- all computers. If you want to learn ANSI codes for BBS' get a document such
- as ANSI Guide by Spiny Norman.
