I've looked everywhere, but I can't find more clarity on the color-coding for the PROMPT. I'd like to end my PROMPT with resetting/unsetting the color after %W, but I don't know what the code would be for setting to white or unsetting the color altogether.

Do you have a resource for what the colors are or how to unset this?

@NeodymiumPhish - are you referring to the main console text? When I look at my console (using the PROMPT in my gist), the prompt > and text are both white. ??

Yes, but the color carries through beyond the %W until msf changes the color. For example, if you use exploit/whatever, msf will change the color of the exploit title to red, then change the close parenthesis to white and the promptchar also turns white. However, the open parenthesis is still blue fro the %blu before %W. I'm trying to turn the text back to white at the end of the set PROMPT because it looks awkward, especially if I use a custom PROMPTCHAR, since the promptchar also changes color until I set a module for use.

Here's an example of how that %blu carries over until the next time the terminal's colors are changed:

After some trial and error, it's just %whi to set text to white, so putting %whi at the end of the set PROMPT fixes this.
