So I was trying to setup goslink today (really I just want the mudbot part of it and I liked the idea of not having to use megamud to do it so I figured I'd try it out). However, I couldn't get ANSI to turn off. I can do "=a" but that only takes effect for the one session. I think I can edit an account through the old console window, but recently had to disable that. When I go to account options (via A -> A in menu), I don't have any option to disable ANSI. This is probably something I did in the config because I disabled RIP and made it so people didn't have to deal with all the ANSI and language questions when signing up and just defaulted ANSI to on. So I assume now it's not displaying the options.

Long story short, my questions is... Is there a way to edit an account and its settings (specifically the ANSI settings) without the old console? I don't see any way to do it via the remote sysop menu. I'm going to setup a second server copying in the backup from this one and start undoing shit to see what makes the option come back, if it does at all.

could be wrong but isn't there a option in the config for goslink to turn ansi off?????

No but I could look into doing that. The ansi off is mainly to make the login and getting into the game cleaner and easier. Telnet such a dirty protocol. I'm finding each board is different with what kinda background noise I get.

With that being said you can try to use it with ansi on. It's just harder to get the right strings to set for your login menu.
