Nice solution except it will only work if the player is in the CON_PLAYING state. if the
player is, for example, composing a board message, or a mudmail, or writing his
description from the option off of the main menu, it will still allow the use of color
codes in there. If you want to prevent players from using color codes in all states of
connectedness then try something similar in game loop right before it checkes the CON_
state of players with pending input.
