no.  vt100 never did color (unless you count "black" and "white", which
varied according to the phosphor used).  Some terminal emulators add
the ANSI/ISO controls for colors.  But they're not vt100's.

vt100

(noting that the "vt100" terminal description refers to a real hardware
terminal that required padding, one may want to suppress the padding,
e.g., "man ncurses" and see the comment regarding NCURSES_NO_PADDING).
