A list of things you've learned is a good idea, it'll help others who have the same questions. Some of the items might make good FAQ fodder.

If you mean one that uses the ^COLOR^ color codes, I don't know of one. I used TundraDraw to build the color welcome screen, but TundraDraw creates actual ANSI codes.

However... it'd probably not take very long for someone to come up with a series of regex replacements in an awk/python/ruby/perl ...
