 * @help To color an item, put the following text in that item's notes:
 *
 *   <color: 1>
 *
 * You can replace the 1 with any number you want, from 0 to 31. this uses the
 * colors in the game's palette; the same colors you get from using the \C
 * code in messages.
 *
 * This plugin replaces the Window "drawItemName" method; it may not be
 * compatible with other plugins that modify that method. If you encounter a
 * conflict with another plugin, placing THIS plugin closer to the top of your
 * plugin list MAY help.
