The default for the console is ansi. A problem that you will probably run into is that you can tell the OS that the multiscreen is a tek4014, and it will deal with the codes, but remember that you are dealing with a PC here, NOT a tek4014 graphics terminal. You will probably need to run a terminal. Mark --- ~ DeLuxe 1.11a18 #3019 ~ QNet 2.04: NorthAmeriNet: Sound Advice BBS ~ Gladstone ~ MO
