#148 AO doesn't handle additional terminal text colors well.
As in, it crashes if you try to use any beyond the default eight, even if your MML script defines additional terminal text colours like so:
<!-- Set colors for term text -->

A bit of background: Several years ago I decided to try adding additional menu items into Hex's colour menu and additional colours into the appropriate Infinity colour table so that I could use terminal text colours beyond the default eight supplied by Infinity. Forge doesn't recognise colours beyond the initial eight when merging maps, but Hex does, so one can simply insert any terminals using such formatting with Hex after the map is merged. Infinity has always handled this fine; Aleph One responds with a crash.
I marked this as being a Windows problem but it probably applies in other OSes as well; I haven't been able to check since the only other OS I'm currently able to run is OS9.
