ANet BBS — bbstext.txt Reference
ANet uses a CNet-style text system where interface text is stored in `bbstext.txt` and referenced by line number.
Each line may contain MCI control sequences using the control character:
\x19 (ASCII 25)
Common MCI Codes
| Code | Meaning |
|---|---|
| \x19n1 | New line |
| \x19c0–7 | ANSI color (0–7) |
| \x19hc | Clear screen |
| \x19h7 | Highlight / attribute |
| \x19i0 | Input mode |
| \x19?0 / \x19?1 | Conditional display |
Example
\x19c6PORT %d READY\x19n1
Renders as:
- Cyan text
- Followed by newline
Design Goal
Maintaining this system allows:
- Reuse of historical CNet text files
- Easy theme replacement
- Separation of UI text from logic
