    point me the way??

    ANSI in messages is a BBS thing. Golded and other message readers have never cared about colours in messages. I suppose they could but the focus in those readers (timEd, MsgEd and there are more) has simply been on messaging on not on colorization.

    Its is strange,

    Why?
    Golded is a message editor.
    The goal is to read text messages.

    personally i tought yes,

    So you thought wrong.

    because there are many BBS ADs that are posted with ANSI

    Yes ... sadly there are,

    But Golded has someething much better. If that spam is marked, you can simply NOY show it at all.

    TWITSUBJ "[ANSI]"
    TWITSUBJ "[AD]"

    This gets rid of those spam ads.
