Actually, though that will enable color for everything else, it will not
help slrn or other slang-based programs. For those, you have to either use
the command line option they have that enables color (for slrn, -C), or you
need to set the COLORTERM environment variable. Here is an example of how I
set the latter in my /etc/zshrc:
# Set COLORTERM for s-lang programs if this is a color terminal
if [[ $TERM = "xterm" ]] || [[ $TERM = "linux" ]]; then
export COLORTERM=y
fi
For bash, you'd want something like this: (untested)
# Set COLORTERM for s-lang programs if this is a color terminal
if [ "$TERM" = "xterm" -o "$TERM" = "linux" ]; then
COLORTERM=y
export COLORTERM
fi
