Does anyone know if DEC (or whoever defines these things) has defined
a Device Attributes response code number which indicates color support?

I am working on a DEC VT420 emulation which includes ANSI color extensions
and I would like a compatible way for an application to find out if its
terminal supports color.

Thanks in advance.
