For a quick check of setting colors, I use the 256colors2.pl script in xterm (with/without the "-r" option). If the palettes don't reverse when changing the "-r" option, the terminal doesn't support setting colors. (other than as used for restoring color settings in those scripts, I don't have something at hand that queries colors). -- Thomas E. Dickey http://invisible-island.net ftp://invisible-island.net
