The escape sequences in your message are ANSI color sequences.
Try the color xterm, recently posted to comp.sources.x and in contrib
on expo.lcs.mit.edu.   Some bboards may make assumptions about special
graphics character sets (like the IBM pc's) -- those still won't work
unless you can find a font with all of the special characters.

Color xterm will take care of any ^[[...m sequence, though.

Best of luck,
