KSirc does Colours!

KSirc follows the colour scheme used by mIrc and a slight modification
for more powerfull in house use.
<fg> == foreground
<bg> == background
[] == optional
Format:
- 0x03<fg>[,<bg>]
- sets the foreground and background
- 0x03
- resets to defaults for THAT line
Format:
- ~<fg>[,<bg>]
- sets the foreground and background
- ~c
- resets tp defaults
- ~b
- sets bold font
- ~u
- sets underline
- ~i
- sets italics
- ~r
- sets underline
Why did I change ksirc to use ~ instead of 0x03 (^C)? Well, it's hard to
use 0x03 in scripts and not all C functions seem to like it.
~<letter> also alows more commands while not stomping on mirc's future
changes.

You can use the following key combinations to insert control codes in text:
- Control-B for bold text
- Control-U for underlined text
- Control-R for reverse text
- Control-K for coloured text
- Control-O for plain text
To underline a single word in a sentence:
- Type Control-U
- Type in the word
- Type Control-U again
Only the text that is enclosed by the start and end codes will be affected.
You can use this method with all of the other control codes.
The Control-K control code is slightly different because it allows you to
specify a colour number. To colour a single word in a sentence:
- Type Control-K
- Type a number between 0 and 15
- Type the word
- Type Control-K again
If you also want to change the background colour of a word, you would need
to type two numbers separated by a comma instead of just one number. The
first number is the text colour, the second number is the background
colour. The colours range from 0 to 15, the index is in the previous section.
You can enclose text in multiple control codes, so for example you could
have a bold, underlined, and coloured word.
