How do I use colors here on GlobalBBS?!?!?!?!?
When you want to use a color in your Doing or in a post, you need to
use the Color-control-character: <Ctrl-A> + the colorcharacter.
You must have a TerminalType that can handle ANSI-colors too. Press
<c><c><1> to see if you get any colors on the screen: if you get a lot
of stuff like ^[[31;0m on your screen, your termtype cannot handle
colors. Sorry. :( (press <c> <t> <n> asap to get your screen back to
normal). You might also need to change your termtype with <c><t>.
So if you, for example, want to change your doing to a yellow text on a
red background that looks like "Hello!", you need to do the following:
(type only the letters inside of the <>'s)
press <c>onfig <d>oing <y>es <Ctrl-A> (note that nothing seems to
happen) <y>yellow <Ctrl-A> <R>ed "Hello!". Now look at the
wholist and see that it worked! :>
^Ad means dark textcolor. ^AD means dark background.
^Ar means red textcolor. ^AR means Rred background.
^Ag means green textcolor. ^AG means green background.
^Ay means yellow textcolor. ^AY means yellow background.
^Ab means blue textcolor. ^AB means blue background.
^Ap means pink textcolor. ^AP means pink background.
^Ac means cyan textcolor. ^AC means cyan background.
^Aw means white textcolor. ^AW means white background.
That's not all, though. :>
There are also extra attributes:
^Aa means default attribute (normal)
^Af means intense color
^Au means underlined
^Ae means ^Ai means inverse
