Is it possible to select different colours using standard VT-100 codes?
Yesterday I logged in to a BBS and it was very colourful, and the
configuration menu said "ANSII VT-100".  I'm stranded at the moment
without my VT-100 manual, can anyone relate to me the codes?  How
do monochrome terminals react to these codes?

Thanks in advance,
Tim Morris.
