I'm using a PC and writing under DOS, using QuickBasic 4.5 I've got a question:

I am trying to write a piece of code that will test a remote system to see if
that system has ANSI screen codes enabled.  Does anyone have an idea of how to
do such a thing?  Actual code would be great or just an explaination would do.

Thanks!
