Lost Souls Color Support

• Lost Souls supports a method of colorizing text that can be used by players. The basic method looks like this: {{blue}colored text}, resulting in blue colored text. The colors produced are only visible to those with a terminal setting that supports ANSI color or who are using Lost Souls client software; see 'help term' for more on terminal settings.

• The ability to use colors requires responsibility. While we understand that many people enjoy having complex color patterns associated with their character, please refrain from being truly gratuitous about it, and most certainly refrain from using colors strictly to confuse or obscure

information. Irresponsible use of colors may result in administrative sanctions.

• In addition to the basic form above, color sequences can be embedded within one another; for example, {{blue}one {{white}two} {{green}three} four} appears as one two three four, with 'one' in blue, 'two' in white, 'three' in green, and 'four' in blue.

• The basic colors available are:
  

         bright black            black              dark black           
         bright blue             blue               dark blue            
         bright brown            brown              dark brown           
         bright cyan             cyan               dark cyan            
         bright gray             gray               dark gray            
         bright green            green              dark green           
         bright orange           orange             dark orange          
         bright pink             pink               dark pink
