I'm not sure I follow what you're saying. If you mean are those the
only ANSI colors? Yes. There are 16 ANSI colors: black, red, green,
yellow, blue, magenta, cyan, gray -- and the bold/intense versions of
those. There are also blinking versions of those sixteen, however,
the color is the same.
If you mean support for other color standards besides ANSI -- what
else is there? Oh, sure, you could probably support Avatar, but
there's no reason to. So, there's pretty much only the ANSI standard
(that seems a bit redundant if you know what ANSI stands for) when it
comes to color codes.
