OK, thanks. I'll put a new release out soon with 256 colors enabled, at least for Cygwin 1.5. I'm curious: where do you use this? I've been using 8 or 16 colors I guess, for all of this time and never noticed it. I don't colorize my ls output, for example, as I know many people do. If there's a common application for this, it would help to point it out to users.
