 Well, my BBS is running on Linux and I'm working on it via Linux.  So I am assuming its more than just Windows causing an issue ? I am having ansi and pipe files display on 137 columns on other menus and such fine.  Just my Mystic for some reason does not display the msg_editor.c1... file at all when on that screen size.  The editor itself works fine, and displays and positions the text from the msg_editor.c132x36.ini just fine. Like the To, Subject, Insert Mode, etc are all located correctly, just no surrounding ansi file to frame it all up.
