• pyAns Script Updates

  sairuk • 04/24/2016 at 22:06 • 0 comments

  While we are still having some problems reading certain ANSI we've updated the script at github at the request of some users to add additional features
  

  
  

  CHANGELOG:

  v04:

  • added external config file as per issue #7
  • repaired issue #6, arose from last commit

  v03:

  • reads both zip and ans/asc etc from the libraries directory
  • changed rendering method but still term width dependant

  There is the potential that the decode func in python may not support everything we need for cp147 so may have to look at that.
  

• pyANS update – Python ANSIart scroller

  I’ve had another look at pyANS this morning after getting it up and running in a centOS VM. In doing so I have learnt a few things.
  
  

  • The script itself is only good for Python 2.7+ so I have now added a check for that prior to running.
  • The escape code [2J (\2J) I was using to clear the console was the reason the ANSI would not reset properly between renders and therefore the reason for the continued corruption once the first ANSI set the console mode. I have now changed that to the reset escape code [033c (\033c) which at least in testing (under centOS) appears so far to have corrected the issues.
  • There was an exception thrown reading some of the ANSI, not exactly sure which yet but I have added a try/except in place to capture and report on it if debugging is turned on.

  Just for laughs here is the script rendering ANSI at faux 300 baud
