I have done this before and the last way I did it was actually quite flexiable at filtering anything and everything that you wanted it to because it had hooks for determine what was filtered and what to do with the filtered characters. Anyways maybe i'll find the source that has it rip it out and post it for people to look over and use. also it can be used for more than just filtering or replacing the color codes since you tell it what it's looking for and what it's to do with what it's looking for on a per use basis for example i used it for both color codes and handling the special XML characters that need to be converted.
