Duh DRAW
DuhDraw is a program which almost perfectly simulates TheDraw for DOS. Back in the good old BBSing days, TheDraw was a program used by a SysOp in order to draw ANSI screens, the only graphics available on BBSes for quite a while. However, for a long time, nobody considered Linux, as Linux BBSes were uncommon. Other applications of the software include login screens, and mud screens. I always thought it ironic that MUDs were mostly run off of Unix machines, and yet they used DOS editors to generate the ANSI screens.

Project Notes
After repeated attempts to contact the author, I discovered that no one has heard from him since 1996 and that this software was abandonware.
I've been given ownership of the project by Freshmeat and have set up a
new project page for DuhDraw.
The new version, which works with GCC 3.0.1 or better is online. DUHDRAW, ANSI, and ANSITOC have all been updated.
Ignore the prior comment about the patch from earlier today.
Patch to make DuhDraw work on GCC 3.0.3
I'm trying to contact Ben, but the email in the READ.ME file no longer works.
I have a
patch available
which makes DuhDraw work on GCC 3.0.3.
