There are only two characters in the .xpm file, a space and an 'o' as you noted 
above.  The font color that appears in your terminal is whatever you have set it 
to be; there is no significance of different colored letters in the .xpm file. 
There either is a hydrogen bond in a frame (in which case you see 'o') or there 
is not (and thus a blank space).
