From: DONALD PEDDER 

   Okay, I finally found the code for green foreground in the help for
ANSI.SYS, but now what? I put ANSI.SYS in my config and re-booted (however
I don't see it when I do a "mem /a", unless it's under
"CON" or "DOS"). I
created a file with the escape sequence in it, but when I do a "type" on
it, my text is still white.
   DOSbook isn't very precise on how to use ANSI.SYS - it says to put it
in the config, which I did, it says to edit a file with the escape
sequence and then do a "type" on it, which I did, and that's all it says,
yet I still have white text. Does this file need to be passed to ANSI.SYS
in the config or something? Confused.

thanks,
  dp.
