    You have to save them in 80x24 (or 80x25) format. I'm not sure how you
    specify that in pablo tho. What I usually do is load the file in TheDraw,
    then do a block save so that I know it's in 80x24. Then I use my text editor to remove any spare <esc>255D text at the end of the file. I also add the <pipe>PO command at line 1 column 1.

    file. I also add the <pipe>PO command at line 1 column 1.

    Clear the screen first always for a smooth transition then put the PO command right next to it on the first line pipeCLpipePO
    Not clearing the screen looks like junk

    Blank lines between lines? That's too many characters per line (78 works).
    You might need to cut down the number of characters per line, depending on
    what command of mystic is showing them many have trouble over 78 characters
    per line (not all display commands do that).
