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.

Ah, now found a reference for the latter 38;5;33 The 38 prefix apparently means to set the foreground colour, but a 48 prefix apparently means to set the background colour. No idea how they're using the 5. The 33 is a colour, but I don't know how that's defined.

Allegedly, on or about 29 January 2016, Dennis Jacobfeuerborn sent: > Now I only need to figure out what exactly "di=01;34" vs. "di=38;5;33" > means... di = directories to be coloured thus 01 = bold or bright (depends on the terminal which one it does) 34 = blue If the third one is a set of ANSI colour codes, then I'd say: 38 = an extra colour beyond the defaults, so you probably have something else that defines what that colour is 5 = flashing text 33 = brown (i.e. dark yellow), possibly this is a fallback option if the other colour doesn't work Alternatively, is it a set of RGB colour codes? Like this: 38 = 38/256 of red 5 = 5/256 of green 22 = 33/256 of blue But only an educated guess. (I wrote fractions, as it's probably a red level of 38 out of a range of 0 to 255, darkest to brightest, respectively.) -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages posted to the mailing list.

This 3 number combo is used only on terminals capable of more than the standard 8, typically 256 colors. I think the "5" seems to be constant, perhaps meaning a color beyond the std 8 and the 33 completes the color specification. jl -- Jon H.

Check for differences or simply take the settings from the system you prefer and set it in the other system.
