First off, the subject of the topic comes from boredom and too much caffeine.
Now then, I am trying to make a MUD with mIRCscript. Actually, its more of a MUSH because it will allow you to do specific events using mIRCscript remotely by adding events to an object.
Anyway, before I get into all that.. my problem is adding color codes to the MUD. Since it will not be a DCC MUD (at least, you will have to use special DCC ports if you want to use a DCC window for it), I can't just use mIRC's color codes (CTRL+K, color number). Rather, I have to use ANSI.
mIRC has a handy identifier, $ansi2mirc which will convert ANSI color codes to mIRC color codes (more or less). But does it have something that does the exact opposite, converting mIRC color codes to ANSI? If not, how would such a thing be made so as to allow bold, underline, foreground, and background colors?
