Handy, thanks. I've used https://github.com/termstandard/colors as a reference in the past as well. It's not at all what Patrick was looking for, but it provides a decent amount of details about colors which can be helpful. For 256-color terminals, you can print them all out easily via any number of quick commands/script, e.g: https://misc.flogisoft.com/bash/tip_colors_and_formatting#colors2 For truecolor terminals, printing all 16 million colors is not useful, other than as a test of how well your terminal scrolls, perhaps ;). Recent Fedora releases set ANSI_COLOR in /etc/os-release as well. I don't know if other distributions do that (I don't think Debian Stable does). If that becomes standard practice, it _might_ be handy for distinguishing each distribution you run. Though I imagine more people run multiple instances of the same distribution than one of each. -- Todd
