<code>colors</code> and <code>256colors</code> - list the colors available for MUCK output.

Assuming your [[MU* Clients|MU* client]] supports it (and most do), Flexible Survival's output will be displayed in color. These colors can also be used in speech, poses, and character descriptions. To use them, add the name or number of the required colour between two <code>^</code> symbols.

The colors available depend on your client's capabilities. To see the options, use the commands <code>colors</code> to list the basic colors by name, and <code>256colors</code> to list the extended set identified by number. Neither command has any options.

In addition to the listed colors, <code>^normal^</code> can be used to return to the default colors. Note that the server automatically resets to the default colors at the end of every line, and for internal reasons using <code>^normal^</code> at the end of a line may cause unpredictable results.

== Examples ==

Typing something along the lines of:

<code style="color:white;background:black">pose unzips his ^101^tight tan pants^normal^, releasing his ^crimson^engorged red^normal^ canine cock from its imprisonment</code>

would appear as:

<code style="color:white;background:black">Marcus unzips his <span style="color:#87875f">tight tan pants</span>, releasing his <span style="color:crimson">engorged red</span> canine cock from its imprisonment</code>
