SMM++ Manual Version 5.0

3 ANSI Support

ANSI color sequences colorize normal text. SMM supports those and if you connect to a MUD supporting it too, you can have colors while mudding. It just looks better.

But as SMM has to scan each line for ANSI-sequences by hand and adjust the colors etc. It might slow down SMM; esp. when recieving large title pages with a lot of ANSI-sequences.

While normal mudding the slow down shouldn't be large and usually computers nowadays are fast enough.

Some may perhaps turn ANSI sequences better off while fights (or buy a faster computer ;)).
