> FANSI-CONSOLE is distributed by NO SMOKING SOFTWARE.

After reading Jerry Peek's referral to Hersey Micro Consulting, I was
confused by this, so I called them back.  It turns out that No Smoking
Software is a product line of Hersey's, called such because their video
software does not smoke monitors.

According to Hersey, the product with manual is $75, and the manual on the
diskette doesn't tell about much other than the speedup and ANSI.SYS
comparisons.
