I would probably do this:
const fg = ['green', 'white', 'white', 'yellow'];
const bg = ['black', 'black', 'blue', 'black'];
const colors = console.getnum(4, 1) - 1;
bbs.exec(
'frotz '
...
+ '-f ' + fg[colors]
+ '-b ' + bg[colors]
...
);
Where 'fg' and 'bg' are arrays of strings. If the user hits '4', fg[3] and bg[3] would be used, so the user would get yellow-on-black, and so on. (If I'm understanding your goal properly.)
Yeah, that looks right, and verified that the results I need are getting passed to bbs.exec, but I think frotz doesn't like something. It's throwing up TERMCAP errors. I had to catch the output in a janky way, but it threw up:
ERROR: Unknown terminal: ansi-bbs
Check the TERM environment variable.
Also make s
ure that the terminal is defined in the terminfo database.
Alternatively, set the
TERMCAP environment variable to the desired
termcap entry
--clip--
Tried with both frotz and dfrotz, same error.
console.putmsg(" 3.\1h\14 White on Blue\1n");
Not sure. Try \x014 instead of \14 and see if it helps.
That did it. Thanks.
