102 has the text effects, apparently. :)

I was thinking of doing this, but N.aes eats memory like a hungry thing. I'll 
probably just hack together a little program which sets the environment, and 
basically asks a "Boot AES or rootshell?" question. It'll take up less memory 
than tcsh :)

The terminfo sources and compiled versions do, but I still can't seem to find 
the actual terminfo compiler... have you got it there?

Interesting idea. I'll take a look.

Currently I'm trying to find Linux's vterms. Maybe I can pick up a few tips. 
They appear to be buried a bit, though. ;)
