Most IRC clients will accept caret notation for formatting IRC text.
The general formula for colors is ^CN,M.
^C is ASCII character 3 (usually represented as \x03 in code). N is the text (foreground) color, M is the background color. A background color is not always included. If no background color is set, the receiving client uses the default background color. Additionally, you can use color 99 to indicate the default color.
| Number | Name |
|---|---|
| 00 | white |
| 01 | black |
| 02 | blue (navy) |
| 03 | green |
| 04 | red |
| 05 | brown (maroon) |
| 06 | purple |
| 07 | orange (olive) |
| 08 | yellow |
| 09 | light green (lime) |
| 10 | teal (a green/blue cyan) |
| 11 | light cyan (cyan / aqua) |
| 12 | light blue (royal) |
| 13 | pink (light purple / fuchsia) |
| 14 | grey |
| 15 | light grey (silver) |
Red text on a blue background would be:
jenni.reply("\x0304,02Example\x03")
