so I set TERM=xterm-256color and invoked emacs -nw, but when I executed (list-colors-display) only 8 colors are shown. What am I doing wrong?
Imagining. Emacs can't display more than the 8 ANSI colours. There are these ANSI Esc sequences to change these colours and to intensify/high light them. If your terminal supports more than then the 8 ANSI colours you could teach it to Emacs -- maybe there is already an augmented Elisp file.
Remember that a terminal is no graphics application! It's a whatever hardware terminal emulation. GNU Emacs too sticks to this definition.
