Hi Josh,
I was able to follow along also. However, I am not sure how to do any 
programming.  Now my concern is the following.

Many programs like word processors can be configured to work with the VT100 
terminal. The VT100 is pretty common. So I think that the VT100 emulator on 
the console IO should be as compatible as possible.  Even if the BOLD, 
UNDERLINE, and BLINKING are not supported I think that REVERSE VIDEO should 
have the correct escape sequence.  According to documentation that I have 
the sequence should be ESC[7m. 

I  have also checked on the sequence for cursor control and everything 
seems to match with the sequence for the VT100.

How hard would it be to modify the .spin programs so that REVERSE VIDEO has 
the correct code?

Thanks,

Harold
