Does it have the capability to render color as scales of green, beige,
or white (whatever the primary display color is)?  If so that could
still be useful.  Does anyone know if those support underline and other
modes off of the top of their heads?  I know that most terminal
emulators that claim VT100 emulation support these things, but I am not
sure if that is an "aftermarket" extension or not.
