pdksh uses an arbitrary, non-printing character to delimit color escape sequences, but no one character works well in all operating systems and on all terminals. This update

  • Uses \021 instead of \016 for better support of NetBSD and OpenBSD (props @scuzzilla)
  • Allows the user to specify their own non-printing character by setting the environment variable POLYGLOT_NP
  • Allow the user to turn of color for pdksh by setting POLYGLOT_PDKSH_COLORS=0
