Gotcha. I missed that part.

OK. In my experience, you can set the fg/bg colors the way you want by 
modifying the system settings in the shortcut (right-click on window bar 
and modify properties there), or by using *bold colors* in your 
definitions. For some reason, in the win32 console \e[00;30m is grey and 
\e[01;30m is white.
