Buck posted to emacs-devel notes about GNU Screen's 256 > color mode and Emacs. To have Emacs recognize the "screen-256color" terminal > and its full range of colors, the file "term/screen-256color.el" needs to be > in the load path. Trent wrote as follows: Having a function terminal-init-screen in file screen-256color.el doesn't make sense. The function probably needs to be renamed to terminal-init-screen-256color. OTOH the file could probably be named just term/screen.el (which would make sense if you consider that "screen-256color" will probably turn into the standard "screen" definition at some point in the future). Also the `load' should probably be moved from inside to outside of the function (tho, this is very minor). Stefan
