Default ANSI Colours for MobaXterm and Putty
The default ANSI colours are much nicer in MobaXterm (imho) as I find the putty colours a little too dark.
To replicate MobaXterm colours in putty here are the RGB settings.
The default putty ANSI colours are here in case you want to revert back ;)
My preferred font is consolas 9pt cleartype.

Thanks for the collection!

There's a small typo in line 32. It should be Green 0 187 0

Hey thanks for that :)
