To get support for ANSI escape sequences you load ansi.sys or equivalent
in the config.nt file. I believe that it is located in the system32
directory. At least that is what I did under NT 3.51.

I think the ansi.sys statements is present, but commented out in the
config.nt files that comes right out of the box.
