Use the Shift-JIS character described below for a full tilde.

A detailed table of all [CS:X] subtags and their intended purpose in the base game.
The colors are stored in FONT/text_pal.pal, and are stored slightly brighter than they appear in-game. When loaded in-game, the last three bits of each value (R, G, & B) are trimmed off to make the whole color fit within 2 bytes rather than 4, so a number like FF (0b11111111) would become F8 (0b11111000). The colors as coded in FONT/text_pal.pal are listed in the "Internal Color" column, and their location in the file is also provided. <!-- Is this paragraph too wordy...? -->
