I found two good references one for the codes themselves and one for all the color codes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code http://misc.flogisoft.com/bash/tip_colors_and_formatting 38 sets the extended foreground color which can be followed by either: 5:n where n is the color index in a standard 256 color palette or 2;r;g;b to set rgb colors from a 24 bit palette.
