How can i tell if the screen i am using really understands 256 colors or
not? i try 'tput 39' both within screen and outside, both actually send
\e[38;5;39m (light blue) as it should, but it seens screen translates it
to \e[34m (blue). tput colors report 256 both within and outside
screen.
This for a remote screen inside a screen that actuall knows 256-colors,
with TERM set to screen before starting screen. Running a testprogram it
seems that this inner screen knows only of the first 8 colors. Changing
TERM to xterm-256color and then starting screen i seems to know abount 16
colors instead. Both termacpentries specify 256 colors, and their diff
seems to mostly include key definitions.
any ideas?
