How can I have a colored welcome message at my works ftp when I have to choose a .txt file as the welcome message? Which I am sure you all know can't include any formatting?

Any help?

BTW: I know this may not be the most suitable forum, but it seemed the closest to topic.
 
Look into inserting ANSI terminal escapes in the welcome text file. If it just does a raw dump of the text to the terminal, it should work if the client terminal supports it.
