Colours
-------
You can colour your prompt. Both the original primaries (red, green,
blue, cyan, magenta, yellow, orange, white, black) and the extended
xterm-256 palette (scarlet, crimson, ember, gold, emerald, mint, teal,
azure, violet, plum, steel, ivory, blood, ...) work as prompt tokens.
Type colour preview to see every named colour. For bright versions
of the original primaries add [bright] before the colour. Colours
flood your screen until they hit a reset, so end the coloured section
with [reset].
There is also an option to lite by percentage: [hplite], [eplite],
[splite] and [psplite]. They also need to be accompanied by a
[reset].
Example
-------
set prompt Icesus: Hp [hp] Exp [exp] >
Web client
----------
The web client hides the text prompt and shows a graphical HUD with
HP, SP, and EP bars instead. Casting progress is also shown
graphically. The text prompt is automatically shown for all other
clients (Mudlet, telnet, etc.).
ZMud
----
ZMud users need a ~ before any special character:
set prompt Icesus: Hp ~[hp~] Exp ~[exp~] >
