I can't duplicate this, but there seems to be a related bug of sorts. %ansi(red) also turns the statusbar background to black, when it probably shouldn't be messing with the background color at all.

I'm probably all buggied up, though, as it's been a while since I did a fresh install.

Ah, this IS interesting...

%ansi( "red", "grey")test bar

Works like a charm. Note the use of quotes. The first color is the foreground the second color is the background.

%ansi(red,grey) also works but Note the lack of spaces.

What is really odd is when you do just %ansi(red) or %ansi( "red") that it changes the background to black.

This also brought to my attention the fact that <color> tags no longer work in the status bar.

Yep, these are all known problems with the color changes in v1.30 and should be fixed in the next version.
