Subj : Synchronet Door ANSI output

Hey all! I'm trying to write a door game in C++ and use it on my Sync install. Not for profit or anything, but to develop my coding skills (which are currently awful).

The project I'm working on is a blackjack game (not original, I know - please don't judge too harshly). This has already taught me a lot about C++, and I'm sure I'll learn a lot more as I go.

Having overcome several hurdles, I'm at a loss with displaying the card suits using ANSI character codes. The ANSI color codes are working, but the suits show up as 3 accented letters, rather than the suit "icons."

When I run the app locally (on the same machine Sync is running on), the suits show correctly.

I'm wondering if I need to change a setting in SCFG or even change how I'm creating the suit icons.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
