1) Golded doesn't support ANSI codes, so ANSI looks like completely garbage regardless what you try.

2) Golded doesn't support anything past the first 256 characters in the translation tables (.chs files). So this will result in some "high ascii" also not displaying properly.

It will show basic ASCII blocks/shades (uncolored), or anything covered in the first 256 characters of the CP437 charset, but nothing above and beyond that.

Regards,
Nick
