Falsche ASCII-Darstellung mit OutlookEpress

Hallochen,

wundersch�ne Bilder Produziert ihr ja, aber im Outlookexpress sind sie immer
durch "TimeNewRoman" v�llig verschoben, wie stellt man da ne
Festbreitenschriftart ein?

========================================================================
[19]  The ASCII Art Rough-Guide to m$.Outlook?
========================================================================
    Microsoft's Outlook Express program has a number of flaws, including
    * deleting spaces from the beginning of lines, and
    * inserting the word `file://' in unexpected places
    which make it very difficult to send ASCII art properly. Whether
    these are bugs or features we don't know, but we do know that
    Microsoft would rather ASCII art as a medium just disappeared (see
      http://cgi.pathfinder.com/time/digital/daily/0,2822,13735,00.html
    for more information). A registry patch to fix some of the flaws
    in Outlook Express is available from the ADA.

how to get rid of blue-lines in OE5:

   1. Press the decode button twice when viewing a blue-struck image.
      Because, after ROT13, OE will not parse links and so 2 x ROT13
      returns everything back to normal, but without the blue lines.
   2. Create a button in your toolbar so you can do it quickly.

      In OE 5.5-6.0 the URL parsing code is slightly better and
      doesn't foul as many images as previous versions.

How to stop Ms.Outlook giving wrapped output

   or the ascii-art you are sending is wider than 72 characters:

   1.  Tools menu
   2.  Options
   3.  Send
   4.  Both of these Mail and News format
   5.  Plain text settings         ____
   6.  Automatically wrap text at |____|

How to set your Outlook Express 6 to view ASCII art correctly:

   1.  On the TOOLS menu, click OPTIONS
   2.  Select the READ tab
   3.  International settings
   4.  Use default encoding for all incoming messages [tick]
   5.  Set the FONTS to display as western european.
       set both the PROPORTIONAL font and FIXED-WIDTH font to
       LUCIDA CONSOLE, and FONT SIZE to SMALLER
   6.  Click OK, then OK again.

How to set your Outlook Express 5 to view ASCII art correctly:

   1.  On the TOOLS menu, click OPTIONS
   2.  Select the READ tab
   3.  Click the FONTS button near the bottom of the box
   4.  For the languages UNICODE, WESTERN EUROPEAN and USER DEFINED
       set both the PROPORTIONAL font and FIXED-WIDTH font to
       LUCIDA CONSOLE, and FONT SIZE to SMALLER
   5.  Click OK, then OK again.

How to set your Outlook Express 4 to view ASCII art correctly:

   1.  On the TOOLS menu, click OPTIONS
   2.  Select the READ tab
   3.  Click the FONTS button near the bottom of the box
   4.  For the languages UNIVERSAL ALPHABET, USER DEFINED and WESTERN
       set both the PROPORTIONAL font and FIXED-WIDTH font to
       LUCIDA CONSOLE, and FONT SIZE to SMALLER
   5.  Click OK, then OK again.

   NOTE : If LUCIDA CONSOLE is not available as a font, pick another
          from the list of available FIXED-WIDTH fonts.

   Examples of fixed-width fonts        1.   ANDALE MONO
   commonly available with ms.windows:  2.   COURIER NEW
                                        3.   LUCIDA CONSOLE
                                        4.   LUCIDA SANS TYPEWRITER
                                        5.   OCR A EXTENDED

   If you have followed the above steps correctly, you should now
   be able to view and create ASCII art as it should be.

Hallo Editha,

gratuliere zu der perspektivisch gelungenen Darstellung! Und
zu den stilisierten B�umen im Vordergrund.
Meine Tastatur ist fast nicht mehr zu gebrauchen von all den
Tr�nen, die mir die sch�nen Bilder der hiesigen Cracks ent-
locken :-) An vorderster Front Jens und Sebastian.

Zu dem bl�den Doppel-Slash und dem noch bl�deren file-Einf�gen:
Mit einem P�nktchen an der rechten Stelle sehen die Bilder
unwesentlich schw�cher aus und geben keinen Ansatz f�r OE, sie
zu vermantschen. Aber das ist nat�rlich kein richtig tolles
Argument, denn wer weiss, was OE in Version 17.4 dann macht. Und
man kann ja seine Bilder nicht immun gegen jede Idioten-Darstellung
machen... Hier ist ein Beispiel (Ich habe mich bei Axel P. bedient):

filifiziert:

   ^..^
 <(    )>
   \  /
  /(oo)\            //
 /  --  \          oo)
file://| __ |\\        file://U\
H (/oo\) H       (/ H
  |\oo/|         -=/ \=-
  \ /\ /          ( _ )
   U  U            | |
   H  H           _l l_
   ~  ~
                     apx


ent-filifiziert:

   ^..^
 <(    )>
   \  /
  /(oo)\            //
 /  --  \          oo)
/.| __ |\\       .//U\
H (/oo\) H       (/ H
  |\oo/|         -=/ \=-
  \ /\ /          ( _ )
   U  U            | |
   H  H           _l l_
   ~  ~
                     apx

Gruss,
R@ineR

 Ich bin mir nicht sicher, aber in der <http://www.oe-faq.de/> sollte
das stehen.  Kï¿œnnte man diese FAQ fï¿œr die doch recht zahlreichen
Benutzer dieses Folterinstruments gleich direkt einbauen?  Dann braucht
man nur das wichtigste erwï¿œhnen, der Rest steht im Prospekt.

 Ach ja, etwas nettes hab ich heute per Zufall bei OE heute doch noch
entdeckt: Ich hab bei uns in der Firma einen LDAP-Server aufgesetzt, um
die Benutzeraccounts und ï¿œhnliche Daten zentral verwalten zu kï¿œnnen. In
dem Zusammenhang gibts da auch ein Attribut namens labledURI. Denk mir
nichts, trag da meine Homepage ein.  Beim Kollegen mit seinem OE unter
XP hab ich dann zu Demonstrationszwecken meinen Eintrag gesucht und mir
die Eigenschaften anzeigen lassen -- der hat tatsï¿œchlich in dem
Dialogfeld drin meine Homepage reingerendert :)  Hat echt nett
ausgesehen *gg*
