HTML 256 to ANSI 16
From Fate's Harvest
This is a list of color codes, and how the HTML 256 corresponds to the ANSI 16, so if you want a color, you can see how it will show to people whether they're using 256 color or not.
Check How To ANSI for how to actually set this code on text.
Contents
To set yourself to see color (default ANSI 16):
- @set me=ansi
To set yourself to see 256 Color:
- @set me=color256
To set yourself to only see ANSI 16 colors:
- @set me=!color256
NOTE: If you are not set ANSI, you will see NO colors at all, even if you still have COLOR256 set.

Red
Oddly, while #ff0000 IS the same colour as %xh%xr/255,0,0, when using the #ff0000 colour code on a client incompatible with 256, it shows up as %xr. The first listing of it in this table is, therefore, technically inaccurate, as #ff0000 does not display as %xh%xr.
