I have picked up a few programs for my AT clone that require nansi.sys to work properly (including stevie, which I'd really like to use). But...I don't have nansi.sys, and ansi.sys is missing a few functions that are required by stevie. I've tried two extended ANSI drivers from simtel, but neither worked satisfactorily. Where do I get the "real" nansi.sys? I have a Northgate-supplied DOS 3.3 system, which I got in November 1988. Thanks. Jim Davies davies@uicsrd.csrd.uiuc.edu
