Thanks for the reply, your mode 7 shell sounds great. My current BBS software
is OBBS from 1984 which I've modded to support sending full Mode 7 graphics
frames and ANSI which it does via terminal rather than acting as a viewdata
server it just uses bget to read each byte of either a teletext frame or ansi
file and sends it over serial. So on a BBC you get mode 7 graphics but on an
ANSI terminal you get ANSI (there's also vt100 if you have neither). It really
supprises me that I can't find a BBS host which can do the same.
