COLOURCODES

Usage: `Ctrl-C [Text Colour],[Background Colour]'

Please note that this feature is not really a command, but it can be used to control the colour(s) in which a (public) text appears. Both the text and the background colour can be changed by first pressing Ctrl^C (That's the 'Ctrl' key + the 'C' key simultaneously!). followed by either one (for the text colour) or two values (text and background). In most fonts Ctrl^C is displayed as a box (unknown character). You can have multiple colour changes in a single text, all preceded by Ctrl^C. Here's a list of available colours and their respective values:
