From Newsgroup: alt.bbs.synchronetyeah, when I used asc2ans it came out like those screenshots I linked to. I thought I still had to convert them back to asc, but I guess not. I kinda hope not.

One issue I've had with looking at the src files is that there's a strange character in an oval shape that says "SOH" inside it wherever there's a CT code. This is from displaying it in notepad++. Is there a better program I could use that would display the CTRL codes properly?you can change the CTRL+A character to \1 in all your .src files
i use xchange from ruth's utilities for this [google it]
when messing with a file that displays, convert it to ansi first with
the msg2ans
utility or whatever they are calling it now. asc2ans maybe.
then change it back [if you wish. i wouldnt]
Thanks, and I apologize for my noobishness. I think I accidentally deleted of Digital Man's posts and I'm not sure if that affects DOVE-Net entirely just my BBS locally. I'll be more careful when scrolling through messages now on.when you delete a msg on your bbs, it is just removed from your bbs.

I don't really understand what \1 means. is it just a placeholder? how do I change it back to a ctrl code afterward?
thanks for your help.
