Hmmm. If the terminal-program supports it, is it possible that it still
can't do it because of a compilation-setting in ncurses?
I tested these terminal programs:
ii aterm 0.4.2-11 Afterstep XVT - a
VT102 emulator for the X w
ii eterm 0.9.2-8.1 Enlightened Terminal
Emulator
ii gnome-terminal 2.12.0-2 The GNOME 2 terminal
emulator application
ii konsole 3.3.2-1sarge1 KDE X terminal
emulator
ii mrxvt 0.4.2-1 lightweight
multi-tabbed X terminal emulator
ii multi-aterm 0.2.1-1 tabbed terminal
emulator with efficent pseud
ii multi-gnome-terminal 1.6.2-11.1 Enhanced the GNOME
Terminal
ii pterm 0.58-3 PuTTY terminal
emulator
ii xterm 208-3.1 X terminal emulator
and none of them gave that I could change the colors and more then 8 colors.
This is (part of) the code:
initscr();
start_color();
_hascolors = has_colors();
_canchangecolor = can_change_color();
_COLORPAIRS = COLOR_PAIRS;
_COLORS = COLORS;
(I output these _-variables)
I use these packages from debian unstable:
ii libncurses5 5.5-1 Shared libraries for
terminal handling
ii libncursesw5 5.5-1 Shared libraries for
terminal handling (wide
ii ncurses-base 5.5-1 Descriptions of
common terminal types
ii ncurses-term 5.5-1 Additional terminal
type definitions
which are the patches of 20051010.
