Pinkfish colour codes
Pinkfish (after its developer) have been used in some intermud protocols to support transmitting colour codes.
These are colour codes that do not require the (unprintable) ESC-character (like ANSI) and can thus be used over intermud lines and in remote who/finger answers.
These colours are not used in the CD library, but were developed by Pinkfish@Discworld to enable colours in players' say and tell commands. Some muds (like TMI-2) seem to support these codes in all commands, but most (like OuterSpace) only support Pinkfish codes for the intermud lines.
These codes are always surrounded by %^ pairs. So in order to send the text foobar in red, use %^RED%^foobar%^RESET%^. If you want to quote the litteral text %^, it should be sent as %%^^.
Known codes are:
| RED | B_RED | FLASH |
| BLUE | B_BLUE | BOLD |
| ORANGE | B_ORANGE | REVERSE |
| YELLOW | B_YELLOW | UNDERLINE |
| GREEN | B_GREEN | INITTERM |
| BLACK | B_BLACK | RESET |
| WHITE | B_WHITE | WINDOW |
| CYAN | B_CYAN | ENDTERM |
| MAGENTA | B_MAGENTA | STATUS |
