    All old terminals? Do you want a list of terminals that don't support color codes? That would require specific version numbers for some of them. Remember that some terminal emulators have been around for decades. You also have all sorts of embedded devices, some of which might still show output on monochrome displays. Could you narrow this down a little? Commented Dec 18, 2019 at 11:23
  • The question is erroneously conflating terminal emulators with terminals, moreover. Commented Dec 18, 2019 at 11:47
  • Why restrict to emulators? The DEC VT340 was a very nice mono-chrome terminal. See also VT100 series, VT200 series, VT300 series, and VT420. There are others. For emulators see the original xterm (I think it did not have colour). Commented Dec 18, 2019 at 12:01
