Ahh, I've been wondering how to do that for the last couple of years (since starting 
with Linux and tn5250) - it's good to find out at last :) Incidentally, is there a 
particular reason why blue is defined as
#define A_5250_BLUE     ((attr_t)COLOR_PAIR(COLOR_CYAN) | A_BOLD) 
rather than 
#define A_5250_BLUE     ((attr_t)COLOR_PAIR(COLOR_BLUE) | A_BOLD)

I've just swapped mine over to the latter so it looks more like a 'real' terminal 
(whatever that is) and is easier to differentiate between blue & turquoise (cyan 
without bold) on the screen. I left the A_BOLD in as it does make it a bit clearer. 

Regards, Martin
