page	Colour Codes

ENiGMA½ supports Renegade-style pipe colour codes for formatting strings. You'll see them used in config.hjson, prompt.hjson, menu.hjson, and can also be used in places like the oneliner, rumour mod, full screen editor etc.

Usage

When ENiGMA½ encounters colour codes in strings, they'll be processed in order and combined where possible.

For example:

|15|17Example - white text on a blue background

|10|23Example - light green text on a light grey background

Colour Code Reference

⚠️ Colour codes |24 to |31 are considered "blinking" or "iCE" colour codes. On terminals that support them they'll be shown as the correct colours - for terminals that don't, or are that are set to "blinking" mode - they'll blink!
