20 # The 4 bit colours are available as global variables with names like
21 # RED, DARK_RED, REV_RED (for red background), and REV_DARK_RED. If
22 # switch_colour_off() is called, these names will all point to the
23 # empty string. switch_colour_on() restores the default values.
25 # The 256-colour codes are obtained using xterm_256_color(n), where n
26 # is the number of the desired colour.
