Public bug reported:
I've been trying to make both vim and weechat work with 256 color
support and the best is that I can make only either one work. Here is a
list of test cases and their results. The "best configuration" leaves
high intensity characters to show as low intensity. The result is the
same with 0.4.2 weechat coming with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and also with
longterm ppa 0.4.3 weechat. All of the tests are with gnome-terminal:
Let's say this is case 1:
tmux new-session -s weechat
And this is case 2:
tmux new-session -s weechat weechat
And this is case 3:
weechat
Let's say this is case 4:
export TERM=xterm-256color in .bashrc, "tput colors" shows 256 colors.
And this is case 5:
export TERM=screen-256color in .bashrc, "tput colors" shows 256 colors.
And this is case 6:
No "TERM=" in .bashrc, "tput colors" shows 8 colors.
Case 1 & 4: Broken lines (weechat FAQ 3.2 case) with missing high intensity
text.
Case 2 & 4: Complete lines with high intensity text.
Case 3 & 4: Complete lines with missing high intensity text.
Case 1 & 5: Complete lines with high intensity text.
Case 2 & 5: Complete lines with high intensity text.
Case 3 & 5: Complete lines with missing high intensity text.
Case 1 & 6: Complete lines with high intensity text.
Case 2 & 6: Complete lines with high intensity text.
Case 3 & 6: Complete lines with high intensity text.
Tests with no "TERM=" in .bashrc, "xterm-256color" in gnome-terminal
settings and "screen-256color" in .tmux.conf:
Case 1: Complete lines with missing high intensity text.
Case 2: Complete lines with missing high intensity text.
Case 3: Complete lines with missing high intensity text.
Tests with no "TERM=" in .bashrc, "xterm-256color" in gnome-terminal
settings and "xterm-256color" in .tmux.conf:
Case 1: Broken lines (weechat FAQ 3.2 case) with missing high intensity text.
Case 2: Broken lines (weechat FAQ 3.2 case) with missing high intensity text.
Case 3: Complete lines with missing high intensity text.
Tests with no "TERM=" in .bashrc, "gnome-256color" in gnome-terminal
settings and "screen-256color" in .tmux.conf:
Case 1: Complete lines with missing high intensity text.
Case 2: Complete lines with missing high intensity text.
Case 3: Complete lines with missing high intensity text.
Tests with no "TERM=" in .bashrc, "xterm-256color" in gnome-terminal
settings and "gnome-256color" in .tmux.conf:

Case 2: Broken lines (weechat FAQ 3.2 case) with missing high intensity text.
