how to make ncurses programs show color in xterm?
Slang programs use color in my xterms, as does ls, but most curses programs
lack color when I run them in an xterm. I know I can get color by setting
TERM to xterm-color, but then when I exit a curses application, the color is
not reset to normal.
Has anyone gotten this to work right? I see that xterm-color has this entry
which I think is supposed to reset the colors:
op=\E[37;40m
And if I look at what slang programs are sending to the screen, I see that
they send this sequence before shutting down. But when I run a ncurses
program, it also seems to send this sequence, and yet the screen is messed
up.
Anybody gotten this to work properly?
