    Hi,
    I currently run a BBS on my BBC Micro (beebs.ddns.net for info), its running over telnet and supports vt100, ANSI and Viewdata/Teletext (on a machine that supports this i.e. a BBC Micro or Acorn Archimedes). With the machine running the BBS most of the time I don't actually get to use it so I was hoping to transition to SBBS but cannot figure out how to send the correct control codes to send viewdata to a BBC Micro client, I've tried a few different formats of files created in a teletext editor (replacing the .msg menu files) but on the BBC Micro it displays the control codes as text rather than interpreting them as teletext control codes over terminal. Is what I'm trying to achieve possible within the currenet parameters of SBBS?
    Many thanks,
    Fred
