Public bug reported: Binary package hint: screen
I was playing with Vim's 256 color capabilities and I found out that they won't work in (GNU) screen. That's very sad, because I run most things on top of screen. Some googling pointed me to a few directions: http://frexx.de/xterm-256-notes/ http://www.jukie.net/~bart/blog/20060824224842 I followed the suggestions in the latter link and compiled screen myself with: --enable-colors256 In fact it's just a matter of uncommenting a line in ./debian/rules I wonder if we can update screen to come with this option by default, since xterm already uses it. Thanks. PS: By the way, if you like Vim, check inkpot. It's a sweet color scheme. You'll probably understand why I'm making this request. : ) ** Affects: screen (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Martin Pitt Status: Unconfirmed ** Changed in: screen (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Martin Pitt -- GNU Screen: 256 colors not enabled https://launchpad.net/bugs/87966 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
