Very Computer

Probably a stupid question, but, is it possible to have a GatTools ListView
gadget interpret ANSI sequences for things like bold/underlined/colored
letters ??

I've tried giving it the escape sequences, but it just shows them as they are.
It doesn't understand or interpret them.

Thanks for any help,
dimitris

Sort of. If you run under OS 3.0 you can supply a custom render hook. That
one can do the parsing.

Yes, it basically does a simple Text() on the string.

You could let the gadget use your own call back hook. (OS 3.0+ I think).
