More color incompatibilities in the bloodspilot ng-x11 client.
The color value "off" is not supported in the ng client. Not
sure whether it was somewhen, but I guess it was.
Color codes are also not supported currently. I
assume that they were supported previously, because
the client option "-ignoreColorCodes" is still
available, allthough it doesn't do anything now,
without color codes.
For these two points, a valid bpc-x11 .xpilotrc will
not be useful for the bpc-ng-x11 (wrong colors),
when it uses any 'off' color values, or color code
colors e.g. "^A".
I am still of the opionion that the color codes are
no useful addition to the client. They create new
problems, like someone sending a message with
the character '^' (which introduces a color code).
If his client does not use color codes, then he will
see his message correctly, but on another client with
build-in color codes, the '^' + next character will be
replaced with a new text color, or swallowed when
ignorecolorcodes is true.
The good thing about the color codes is that more different colors are
available in the client, but that could be done by just increasing maxcolors
and using color numbers 16+.
