Hi there,

Yes i know you are supposed to convert your ANS file to MSG using the ans2asc
utility.  Thats ok. It works. I do that.
But if you add @Codes to your ANS file, you will quickly lose how the layout
will look like eventually. Or you will end up using a text editor afterwards,
editing the ANS/MSG file to move stuff around and look at the result, repeat
that until the layout looks the way it is supposed to look.

Currently i am using Moebius for Linux to edit the ANS files. There is
IcyDraw, wich can handle MSG files directly (i guess), but it always is no
WYSIWYG editing as soon as you want to use @Codes, but guessing, measuring,
textediting afterwards.

Is there a better way? A way to edit Ansi's WYSIWYG with @Codes included?

Example: head.msg/head.ans IcyDraw/Moebius https://imgur.com/a/T9anJRs
