Subject: 256 colors in ansi-term buffers
Date: Thu, 17 May 2012 02:58:13 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4FB4A185.7040909@comcast.net> (raw)

Is there any way to get 256 color support in ansi-term?  By that I mean 
256 colors in an ansi-term buffer with emacs running under X, not 256 
colors for emacs -nw when running in an ansi terminal (which seems to be 
the more popular question).

Looking at the definition of eterm-color it only advertises 8 colors, 
and the code for term.el seems consistent with that, having only an 8 
entry color vector that can be remapped.  In my application I need as 
close to a real terminal as possible so eshell isn't an alternative.  
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Chris.
