  • 24-bit ANSI

    From MeaTLoTioN@1337:1/101 to All on Wed Jun 15 21:49:08 2022
    Hey y'all,

    I'm trying to create a 24-bit (truecolour) ANSI, well a bunch for a potential new theme for TQW, and using Pablo I can create a custom palette from the 24-bit palette, but when it saves the file it seems that the ANSI escape codes for the colours are a little weird, eg ^[[0;R;G;Bt instead of what I was expecting like ^[[38;2;R;G;Bm - and I think due to this neither SyncTerm or Netrunner can handle the colours and so show what I imagine would be considered














































































































































































































































































































































































































    the closest equivalent from the 16 colour palette.

    If anyone has any ideas on this, I'd love to hear them.
    Cheers guys n gals!

    Hey MeaTLoTioN, Cool idea... can Mystic handle it? Also, not sure what kind of client could manage it, but you could write your own... a simple one wouldn't be too bad... might be a nice project... you're always pushing the boundaries with cool ideas... I like it!

    Just dug up this necropost as I was doing the same thing just now. I am able to output a full 24-bit ansi rainbow in Netrunner, SyncTerm and web fTelnet just now. Running the demo on Mystic, check out option /# on TheForze!

    oP!
