Colors

Text can be displayed in 52 different colors in normal gameplay.

Default colors
By default all text is (S).

Custom colors
Text is colored by surrounding the parts you want to color with backticks (`) (the key to the left of the 1 or ESC key, and above TAB on most English keyboards), and a single alphanumeric character (0 to 9, a to z, and A to Z) immediately after the first backtick, which is used to specify color. For example "foo `Lbar` baz" would be displayed as "foo baz".

Other Colored Strings
In addition to the above, there are other strings that are automatically colored by the client:


 * Any GC strings.
 * The letters
 * names, if the user is online and has chatted recently.
 * The string "".
 * Things that look like sectors, such as, , , etc.
 * Anything matching the regular expression, like "".
