ANSI works well for me. ASCII/ATASCII/ANSI would suit me fine. I like the ability to add CGS. The software and documentation are difficult to find, though.

What term programs support CGS?

CGS viewing system, VERSION 0.93

CGS stands for the Color Graphics System for Atari XL/E computers.

Color Graphics System (C) 1991,1992
By Tom Hunt

The CGS viewing system allows you to view online color graphics, when
connected to host systems that support CGS.

I used it with bobterm, a stock 130XE and a mio, and with a 320XE with black box, it was fine. Though others used a rambo and didn't seem to have any issues

looks like a compare elsewhere sets the bits... more than one check or actor, the modules and the core are interacting with each other. That being said... a new compatible BBS is coming so...

 

It's nice to see you're having fun hacking about though... for your personal pleasure and use....
