   Sscii has pretty much the sam functionality of GSCII+ but with a
command line interface, but you need a command line shell for the GS
to do this. The major ones out there are the Orca shell (included with
all of their languages), and the GNO/ME shell. Both of those are
commercial-- you need to pay for them.

   If you're happy with GSCII+, and don't have a command shell, you're
better off sticking with things as is.

   Finally, LOSE THE HUGE .SIG. 4 lines, 80 columns is common USENET
(i.e. every newsgroup) standard. If you don't believe me, head over
to the group alt.fan.warlord and read up on what people do to very
large .sigs. Also, as a free tip, 'dont' tends to have an apostrophe
in it. If you got rid of the huge ascii art, your .sig could fit on
two lines, which is just fine.
