Since vt220-color is not a "real" term type. Is this the terminfo I (cmosley) gave you or someone quite a while ago for an apple vt220 emulation - the problem being that you could not get color using the standard vt220 ? Or maybe something you put together yourself? In reference to the other response. Isn't the COLORTERM env variable used by programs compiled with slang (instead of *curses) to force color when not explicit in the terminfo. > but then less complains that my terminal type 'is not fully > functional' (reminds me of the tasha yar/data tryst on NextGen). > > anybody got some ideas on how to have mutt display colors without > the flash mode? > > here's the relevant portion of ~/.muttrc -- > > # COLORS (thanks to [EMAIL PROTECTED] !) > color hdrdefault brightgreen black > color header brightyellow black "^from:" > mono header bold "^from:" > color header brightyellow black "^subject:" > mono header bold "^subject:" > color header brightcyan black "^to:" > color header brightcyan black "^date:" > color header brightcyan black "^x-mailer:" > color quoted white black > color signature brightgreen black > color indicator brightblue brightgreen > color error brightred black > mono error bold > color status brightgreen brightblue > color tree brightmagenta black > color tilde brightmagenta black > > color body brightyellow black > (((ht|f)tps?)|mailto):(//)?[^\ "\t]*|www\.[-a-z0-9.]+)[^\ .,;\t>">] > mono body bold (((ht|f)tps?)|mailto):(//)?[^\ > "\t]*|www\.[-a-z0-9.]+)[^\ .,;\t>">] > color body brightwhite black "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" > mono body bold "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" > color body brightyellow black "^Good signature" > mono body bold "^Good signature" > color body brightwhite red "^Bad signature from.*" > mono body bold "^Bad signature from.*" > > -- > It is always hazardous to ask "Why?" in science, but it is often > interesting to do so just the same. > -- Isaac Asimov, 'The Genetic Code' > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://groups.yahoo.com/group/newbieDoc -- we need your brain! > http://www.dontUthink.com/ -- your brain needs us! > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
