Examples

• Bold Print Example:
• puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan :This word is \002Bold\002 - these are not"
• As you can see the \002 opens the bold print, the word "Bold" is printed bold, and then \002 closes the bold print and the rest of the line is not bold.

• Colored Print Example:
• puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan :This word is \00302Blue\00300 - these are white"
• As you can see in this example the \003 flag is used to specify a color change, the 02 after the \003 specifies BLUE as the color. The word "Blue" is then printed in Blue.
• Another \003 changes the color again, the 00 after the \003 specifies the rest of the text should be white.

• Bold and Colored Example:
• puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan :These words are \002\00308Yellow & Bold\00300\002 - these are plain"
• In this example the output is both colored and bold. The \002 is the bold the \00308 is the yellow, then the \002 is closed
• and the \003 is changed back to 00 (white text).

• The same methods above can be applied to highlight the text as well.
• To change background colors simply use this format
• \003FF,BB
• FF being the Foreground
• BB being the Background

• Colored Text on Background Example:
• puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan :These words are \00301,04Black On A Red Background\003 - these are plain"
• The above example puts black text on a red background, the \003 is the color change, 01 is black text, 04 is red background,

• It's as simple as that. Now you can easily modify your scripts so that the output is more attractive.
