If you play around with the settings on your monitor you can get the Yellow(brown) to look like brown.

But BRIGHT YELLOW > on anycolor does work. I don't think that this is an error. The color "yellow" is low intensity and is supposed to be brown. Most of the time it looks like red. To get a real yellow, you have to have a high intensity yellow which you get with the command "bright yellow". -- cj
