For most of us who grew up on IBM PC systems in the DOS days, "ANSI" was a character set / graphics style first, and an organization second. I don't know what the official standards for the character set and terminal specifications are, but people who are interested are going to be looking for "ANSI" or "ANSI graphics", not a standards document number. (Compare the usage of "ISOs" to refer to CD images regardless of their status as ISO-9660 filesystems and ISO's other standards.) -- Joe Wreschnig <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
