Hello,
Some old PC terminal emulators emulate "ansi" color. They use a total
of 16 colors, which are really 8 colors with light/dark (bold/normal)
versions. The color modes are triggered by escape sequences. The
actual colors used in various emulators vary quite a bit.
I am interested in knowing which terminal actually originated these
colors (vt241? vt3xx series?).
Neither the VT240 nor the VT330/340 support these color modes.
The VT525 does, but I doubt it was the first. If I had to put money
down, I'd say it was something non-DEC that did it first.
Peace... Sridhar
