'''AN2''' (short for '''ANSI/2''', though it's unlikely its creators were authorized to use such a name) is an extension of [[ANSI Art]] format. It defines new [[ANSI escape code|escape codes]] to support customizing the palette and font. It does not appear to have caught on.

AN2 is not backward-compatible with ANSI Art. An ANSI Art viewer lacking AN2 support will probably display a lot of garbage characters when rendering an AN2 file.
