Indigo Internal Commands

Overview

Indigo includes a set of internal commands and an internal command processor that can perform various application tasks.
Internal commands are invoked by sending the internal command instruction to a terminal session.

All internal commands (except the cls command) start with a color character.

Internal commands can be included and sequenced in multi-commands.
