Why FreeDOS has 16 colors
If you[he]#039[/he]ve looked carefully at FreeDOS, you[he]#039[/he]ve probably noticed that text only comes in a limited range of colors—sixteen text colors, and eight background colors. This is similar to how Linux displays text color—you might be able to change what text colors are used in a Linux terminal, but you[he]#039[/he]re still stuck with just sixteen text colors and eight background colors.
