Title: Text Colors (another stupid thing implemented by blizzard)
Post by: Freeware on September 03, 2003, 05:15 PM
Ok here is all the text colors. Use them with caution, they will probably be the next thing disabled (and maybe banned) by battle.net.

Public Const BNETGreen = "ÁR"
Public Const BNETGrey = "ÁQ"
Public Const BNETYellow = "ÁZ"
Public Const BNETRed = "ÁY"
Public Const BNETBlue = "ÁV"

Perhaps you should think and/or read back before posting?  The ability to color chat appeared because of flawed UTF8 decoding in SC/BW.  The other clients do not implement UTF8, and are therefore unaffected - they see exactly the characters you pasted.  IIRC, this was discussed in some depth when it first came out.  I don't see why they'd bother banning you for sending those codes - seems like a waste of effort.  As for 'disabled', that will likely happen when/if they fix their decoding in the client.

Not only is it incorrect, but he didn't even bother to indent or cast Header as a specific type!

Then Header is a variant?

Yes; an unused variant.

Not to mention he uses an incorrect c-style hex variable, 0xFU.
