ANSI Colors

Winfetch uses ANSI escape sequences to display colors.
The new Windows Terminal supports ANSI colors out-of-the-box.
Windows 10 version 1909 onwards, the ANSI colors are supported by default in the default terminal (called conhost) too.
For Windows 10 versions 1511 through to 1903 this has to be enabled in the registry at:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Console]
"VirtualTerminalLevel"=dword:00000001
For all Windows versions less than 10, like 2000, XP, Vista and 7, you'll have to use a little tool called ANSICON to enable colors.
An alternative for older systems is to use third-party terminal emulators, the most popular one being ConEmu.
