High intensity brown is yellow - this is just how IBM-CGA worked.

Anyway, the easiest way to change attributes is with color/attribute codes we
call "Ctrl-A codes" (http://wiki.synchro.net/custom:ctrl-a_codes), like so in
JS:
print("\1nThis is normal. \1rThis is red. \1hThis is bright-red.");

Yeah, you probably don't want to do that. 1. It would only work in
CTerm/SyncTERM termiantes and 2. it's going to disable high-intensity
attributes for the entire session. :-)
