So here, I think it's important to retain the historical info, so
I made this text:

       38        256/24-bit foreground color follows, shoehorned  into  16
                 basic  colors  (before Linux 3.16: set underscore on, set
                 default foreground color)
       39        set default foreground  color  (before  Linux  3.16:  set
                 underscore off, set default foreground color)

Okay?

Thanks,

Michael
