• problem with postmsg.js?

    From poindexter FORTRAN@VERT/REALITY to All on Mon Nov 12 10:02:31 2018
    I have a BBS ad I've posted manually for some time that uses some high graphics characters. I can copy and past it no problem into an editor, but when I try to use postmsgs.js, it runs without any errors, but only posts the first character, the top character making up the top part of L.

    The ad is below:

    The ad is below:

    Does original ad file have any unusual characters (e.g. Ctrl-Z)? You could either hex dump and check the file for unusual characters or upload the original file to Vertrauen and I can take a look-see for you.
