USING COLORS
CoffeeMUD supports the base 16 ANSI and the ANSI 256 colors. Color display can be disabled, or set to base ANSI or ANSI256 colors with the ANSI and NOANSI commands. To use an ANSI color in the description of an item (or while using the Writing skill), precede the text string with the color code (and no space). It is always best to end each colored string with the ending code of ^? to prevent color bleed into subsequent text. For ANSI 256 colors, the color code is started with ^# and then a 3 digit base 6 code for Red-Green-Blue completes the code. Since your client may interpret colors a little differently, below is the baseline sample of colors (and the colors you will see in Siplet).
ANSI COLORS
| Foreground Code | Background Code | Name | Fancy Name | Sample | HEX Code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| No Code | No Code | black | black | #000000 | |
| ^R | No Code | maroon | maroon | #800000 | |
| ^G | No Code | dark green | forest green | #008000 | |
| ^Y | No Code | brown | olive-green | #808000 | |
| ^B | No Code | dark blue | navy-blue | #000080 | |
| ^P | No Code | purple | purple | #800080 | |
| ^C | No Code | cyan | teal | #008080 | |
| ^W | ^~W | silvery | silver-colored | #c0c0c0 | |
| ^k | No Code | grey | grey | #808080 | |
| ^r | ^~r | red | red | #ff0000 | |
| ^g | ^~g | green | lime green | #00ff00 | |
| ^y | ^~y | yellow | yellow | #ffff00 | |
| ^b | ^~b | blue | blue | #0000ff | |
| ^p | ^~p | fuchsia | fuchsia | #ff00ff | |
| ^c | ^~c | aqua | aqua | #00ffff | |
| ^w | ^~w or ^~k | white | white | #ffffff |
ANSI 256 COLORS
These color codes can be used regardless of the author's ANSI configuration. Users who have ANSI disabled, will not see any colors. Users with ANSI 16 will see the color from the ANSI color table above, instead. Users with ANSI 256 enabled will see the listed color, with some possible variation due to the way the client interprets the color.
To use a background ANSI256 color, use a "|" instead of the "#" in the code.
- Example
- Cerulean is code ^#023 for text(foreground), and ^|023 for highlight(background).
