Yeah!  But the easiest way for me to explain it would be to tell you to get a 
program called TheDraw/Acid Draw (if you have DOS).  If you don't have DOS then 
use a search engine to find some kind of ANSI Drawer for your system!  ANSI is 
what you are talking about!  ANSI is color ASCII!  It's a whole lot better than 
just plain ASCII, but it crashes many systems!  Anyway, after you have TheDraw 
or whatever go into it and make an ANSI picture or something & save it!  Then 
edit the file you just saved & all those [1;30m, [0m, [255D, etc. things you see
with the arrow in front of them are what causes the color & various other 
things!  Experiment with them!  It's a lot of fun!

Yeah... but our terminals here on campus all use pine and whenever 
someone posts a message with color in it... our terminals shit-the-bed 
and get all messed up. When dialing in on a modem to campus and using 
pine, the only way to stop the computer from going schizo on us, is to 
hang up!!! Please don't use colors...

	ok well i KNOW all the computers on campus have a Vt-100 terminal 
emulation i would still like the codes for personal use, NOT for on news 
groups , and NOT for off campus use.. you are correct about the modems, 
but why cant their terminal setup be set to VT100 also? all i want are 
the codes. ppl know, but refuse to tell.,
