ANSICOLOR COLOR COLOUR

Usage: color

color <off/sparse/normal/complete>

If you have a color-capable terminal and wish to see useful color-coding

of information, use the COLOR command to set the level of coloring you see.

COLOR with no argument will display your current color level.

Color off disables all color. Color sparse, normal or complete turns color

on to various levels. Experiment to see which level suits your personal

taste.

Using color will slow down the speed at which you see messages VERY slightly.

The effect is more noticeable on slower connections. Even if you have

color turned on, non-colorized messages will not be slowed down at all.
