      From: nospam.Al@p2.f757.n153.z1.fidonet.org              Hello zdrmonster,               zp> I've been hearing about it, and I don't think SyncTERM supports it.              SyncTERM does support RIP graphics. I haven't tried it since I don't know of       any BBSs that are sporting RIP.               zp> It seems to be from the 1990s and was a way for BBSes to have more        zp> graphics than ANSI art, Synchronet apparently "supports" it but I        zp> haven't known much more than that. Does the Mystic software support        zp> it?              Back in the 90's I used ripterm to log into RIPable BBSs, they had a cool look       about them. The door game LORD also supports RIP and looks good with RIP       support.              RIP was a commercial venture back then. If you wanted to go full RIP you could       register and get a RIP editor to create the screens.              Not much ever came of RIP, it was never widely supported but it was cool.               Ttyl :-),        Al              ...
