Nansi.sys is a public domain ANSI console driver for MS-DOS. I wrote it in a fit of frustration with ANSI.SYS, the standard equipment console driver, which is extremely slow; NANSI.SYS is much faster because it handles multiple-byte writes efficiently. It also implements a greater subset of the ANSI standard, and provides access to OEM hardware features, such as 43 line mode on the EGA. Contrary to recent statements on Usenet, NANSI is unrelated to FANSI (aka FCONSOLE.DEV), whose sources are not public domain. Anyone with bug reports or comments on desired functions (and especially anyone who has implemented more ANSI functions) is invited to send them to me at ...rochester!srs!dan. If there is interest, I will integrate the new functions, and post a new version to the net. - Daniel Kegel
