BTW, the color difference you see in these Windows screenshots is the classic "dark yellow vs brown" issue.Quick background, with digital #RGBI signals (like used with #CGA), you couldn't have brown, but high-quality monitors (including IBM's own, but also a Commodore 1084 I have here) had extra circuitry adjusting dark yellow to brown by reducing the green component. With #CGA on a cheap monitor or a TV set, you still had "dark yellow".#VGA finally moved to analog #RGB and used brown. Still many terminals today (including #Windows #Console) have dark yellow in their default palettes.#dos2ansi must rely on the default palette when the terminal supports only 8 or 16 colors, but with a 256-color terminal, it uses "original" CGA/VGA colors. And of course, there's a switch to disable the "brown adjustment" 馃槑Screenshot from #xterm on#FreeBSD showing both modes, actually this example looks like it might have been designed with "dark yellow" in mind.#retrocomputing #ansiart
