ansi(1)

NAME
Ansi mode -- toggles display of ANSI escape sequences

DESCRIPTION
This macro is used to toggle the ANSI mode flag associated with the current buffer. Normally, ANSI compatible escape sequences are displayed in a printable format. When the ANSI mode flag is enabled, these escape sequences are interpreted by CRISP and can be used to effect coloring and highliting, within the current buffer/window.

This mode is useful, for example when looking at output from a program.

The escape sequences include the foreground and background color setting escape sequences (ESC[3?m and ESC[4?m) and the reverse video escape sequence.

MENU/KEYS
This macro can be accessed from the CRISP features menu or by typing ansi at the command prompt.
