Greetings,

    I was wondering if there is a TSR available somewhere that will convert
the ANSI graphic characters to readable ASCII characters.  IBM Expanded
codes of 179 - 223, so I can run an application, that uses the ANSI codes
onto a NON-ANSI machine.  What I am getting as graphic characters at
present is "D" for the graphic "-", etc.

    So in other words, I would like a TSR that will read the current screen
and change the ANSI graphic characters to readable ASCII characters, like a
"-", "+", or "#".  Or any other program that will change the characters on
the display would be perfect.

    All comments are welcome, Thanks in advance.
