    i use a utility called xchange to do a mass replacement of the colors

    xchange /i text.dat "@g" "@n@r"

    change @ symbol to smiley of course.
    or the slash \1

    looks like he let his domain expire.

    Maybe use search and replace? Some common colors are configured in ctrl/attr.cfg, perhaps start there.
