write_to_descriptor question

how would I make it so write_to_descriptor could handle colors... I am
trying to make my own cool little promtp so it shows the
tank tankcond enemy and enemycond.. don't tell me to use the new_prompt
patch.. cuz' that is totally irrelevant to this post.. the question is
about write_to_descriptor :P anyways.. I tried changing the
write_to_descriptor which sends the prompt to SEND_TO_Q(prompt, d).. but
obviously that didn't work too well, since it sends it like 5 times every
second in that case.. thanks in advance for any help though.. also instead
of write_to_descriptor.. are there any other functions that send to the
descriptor? possibly any that can handle colors?
