Some legacy software accidentally supports ANSI in messages because it spits out data to the terminal as its saved.

Mystic renders everything server-side and in the case of the message reader it presents it to you in a scrollable reading window.  You can even upload ANSI files directly into the editor and it renders properly right in the editor. You can also switch to a "TheDraw-like" draw mode.

I don't think any other BBS has the same awareness/server-side imaging that Mystic does.  Even offline readers don't.  Its a feature that started in Mystic in the early 2000s and others just haven't found worth implementing, I guess?
