## Clients Supported
`ssh-chat` has a few features, one of them being coloring usernames according to the selected theme. `ssh` is a protocol that transports data, and any client can use it, but not every client supports the coloring codes that `ssh-chat` uses. To have users appear colored in your chat, you must use a client that supports ANSI escape sequences.
**List of clients that work:**
* Bash for Windows / WSL terminal
* MinGW TTY terminal
* PuTTY, KiTTY and similar related programs
* Any `xterm`-like terminal emulator (`st`, `rxvt-unicode`, `terminator`, Gnome/xfce/KDE terminals, etc)
* Emacs `ansi-term`
* NeoVim embedded terminal (`:terminal`)
**List of clients that don't work:**
* `cmd.exe` on Windows with `ssh`
* Emacs `eshell` (just use `ansi-term` for ANSI support)
* Web terminals that don't support ANSI escape sequences
