Well, while your text_file.write(....amiga ANSI code to switch) will work, all the 'versions' of corona tracker that I see have the correct topaz.asc and codepageswitch.asc codes embedded properly.

If your solution works for you, wonderful - but for me, aNACHRONISTs original, unmodified, code works for all terms.
