I imported adpack23.zip into vert and the extended description display fine, at least using the built file lister, in sbbs. I do see there are Ctrl-A codes for cursor-right positioning (which would need to be replaced with spaces, at minimum, for the original art to display correctly) and the conditional-newline sequence (Ctrl-A/) is also required for proper display matching the screen width provided in the SAUCE record of the FILE_ID.ANS file.

I'm not clear why these codes would be problematic for DDFileLister.
