ANSWER: How to view ANSI


If you're on a unix system, "xterm" usually supports enough of ANSI to
suffice. (A VT100 terminal or emulation for it is usually about right
too.)

If you use linux, the linux console supports ansi colors, and there's
a color-xterm that can handle them as well. (And the newest version of
"screen" supports ANSI colors... so you can use the color floyd-prism
that was posted here last week to brighten your day :-)
