color errors

I'm trying to add colors to my mud like the FAQ says
and i keep getting a

comm.c:2446: error:redefinition of 'send_to_char_color'
comm.c:2431: error:'send_to_char_color' previously defined here
comm.c:2552: error:redefiniton of 'send_to_pager_color'
comm.c:2530: error:'send_to_pager_color' previously defined here

all i did was add the
#define send_to_char send_to_char_color
#define send_to_pager send_to_pager_color

to the very end of the mud.h file, and i changed the text saying 'send_to_char_color' and 'send_to_pager_color' in the comm.c to 'send_to_char' and 'send_to_pager'

the FAQ said to "comment out the two functions
send_to_char() and send_to_pager()" ..i think i did that

You think you did? Either they are commented out or not, sounds like not since you are getting the duplicate function messages. Make sure you recompile everything.

I figured out what i did wrong. I didnt comment out those functions, thats what my stupid error was

and how can i stop my colors from bleeding all over? is there somewhere in the source that tells what command does that?

Depends. You are using Smaug 1.4a right? Then not really. SmaugFUSS has a color reset symbol, &D. You'd have to add a &w at the end what lines are bleeding.
