I've implemented this and should be sending patches to the Consortium in

Has anyone hacked xterm to recognize ANSI colour escape sequences?

We have quite a number of applications, including ones we
develop ourselves that  take use of colour if the terminal
supports it.

I may attempt to perform this hack myself, but I'd rather not reinvent
the wheel.
