You've really gotta read your code...

The easycolor patch uses the & command line...
i.e. if you type &rHi it'll come out in red...then bleed the screen...
You need to close the command.

I.e. &rtesting&n --- close with a &n...

When you wish to use an ampersand in the mud, you need to double it
up...i.e. me && my friend will appear me & my friend.

If colour ever bleeds, type &n to fix it, or look or *most* muds.
