Command:

PKSFANSI


Purpose:

PKSFANSI (PK Safe ANSI) is a Terminate and Stay Resident program
that disables ANSI Keyboard Key Reassignments, thereby preventing
'ANSI bombs' embedded in any text file (such as README files) or
output by any program.

Normally, ANSI sequences that redefine the keyboard could be
hidden inside ANY text file or program, and could be executed
completely unnoticed until it is too late. PKSFANSI intercepts
calls to the ANSI.SYS or other ANSI device drivers, and filters
out any keyboard reassignments, while allowing other ANSI sequences
through unaltered.

If a keyboard key reassignment is attempted, PKSFANSI will
intercept the sequence and discard it. PKSFANSI also will BEEP
to alert you that a reassignment was attempted.

PKSFANSI requires less than 1000 bytes resident RAM, and should
work with any ANSI driver, such as the standard ANSI.SYS driver,
NANSI, ZANSI, DVANSI, etc. Note that if you use a memory
resident ANSI driver, such as the DESQview DVANSI.COM driver,
that PKSFANSI should be loaded after the ANSI driver is loaded.
