Mr Google does - he lead me here: http://www.online-it-support.co.uk/?p=797[^]

you can find out with dos command: "color x", where x = 1, 2, 3, ..., a, b, c, d, e, f
C:\>color /? Sets the default console foreground and background colors. COLOR [attr] attr Specifies color attribute of console output Color attributes are specified by TWO hex digits -- the first corresponds to the background; the second the foreground. Each digit can be any of the following values: 0 = Black 8 = Gray 1 = Blue 9 = Light Blue 2 = Green A = Light Green 3 = Aqua B = Light Aqua 4 = Red C = Light Red 5 = Purple D = Light Purple 6 = Yellow E = Light Yellow 7 = White F = Bright White If no argument is given, this command restores the color to what it was when CMD.EXE started. This value either comes from the current console window, the /T command line switch or from the DefaultColor registry value. The COLOR command sets ERRORLEVEL to 1 if an attempt is made to execute the COLOR command with a foreground and background color that are the same. Example: "COLOR fc" produces light red on bright white

If only google indexed the internet, I would not have had to ask. Not my fault.

He wasn't asking how to find it (and the answer is, of course, google), he was testing our memory.

That's an unfair advantage - knowledge is not supposed to mean anything, it usually ruins good discussions - and as it has not been endorsed by w3c, it can't be worth sh*t. ;)

Ok. I probably was thinking more of the garish CGA colors
And from the clouds a mighty voice spoke:
"Smile and be happy, for it could come worse!"And I smiled and was happy
And it came worse.Garish - but not necessarily usable: Doom in CGA[^] (YouTube, SFW)

"Why don't you tie a kerosene-soaked rag around your ankles so the ants won't climb up and eat your candy ass." - Dale Earnhardt, 1997My first machines were all green monochrome, so these colors were all shades of green. When I first ran one of my apps on a color monitor I was amazed!

You can see the 16 colors all at once, in their normal order on all kinds of Windows machines, young or old: use
