The ANSI mode used in all versions of QMODEM is that of the
*IBM*. If you look in your DOS manual under ANSI.SYS, you
should (I hope :-) ) find a listing of all the ANSI codes (for
the PC). Many BBSs use these to create graphics and music.

If you want to use vi, try a vt100 emulator like Kermit or Procomm.
