  • Option to convert ANSI color sequences on message import.

    From Michael J. Ryan@VERT to GitLab issue in main/sbbs on Wed Jul 27 14:43:07 2022

    It would be nice to have an option in SBBSEcho/QwkNet etc. So that on message ingress/import it converts simple ansi color sequences to corresponding CTRL-A codes.

    This would allow for ANSI messages to be displayed while allowing line-count and full-screen readers to function more simply.

    To consider, not sure how/where ansi display detection gets flagged or trigger, if it's a message attribute, this should run before any such check.
