I believe those are ascii escape sequences... There's a document on
mouse.van.m-l.org that has a list of all of them... You can clear
screens, insert backspaces, and all sortsa other nifty cool stuff. I use
them on my login screen for color(where easy-color won't work)... But as
to how to fix them, I think you just have to put in the correct escape
sequence(take a look at screen.h, see where it has like \x1B[0m? Thats
an escape sequence as well.)
