Besides using # and ! for border-colored and text-colored dots, it will now use numbers to specify dots in the color of one of the colors listed in the colors field. This field is normally used for coloring the spaces of the board, but it may be expanded beyond the colors needed for the board. On a regular checkered board, the two colors of the board will normally be 0 and 1, and the next color will be 2. You can set 2 to whatever color you want, then insert {2} in your FEN code to display a dot of that color. Since numbers are normally used to indicate a number of empty spaces, any number used to designate colors must appear inside braces. This lets the number be used as a label instead of information about the number of empty spaces.
