I don't know much about terminfo. Would you care to give me an example patch? I think it's the DIRCOLORS file you are talking about? No feedback; closing. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows 98;) Description of problem: Instead of having literal escape codes specified in terminals-specific environment, terminfo compatible color codes should be used instead. Then it is a simple matter of ensuring that the correct 'setb' or 'setf' settings are set in the relevent terminfo database. After all, that is exactly what the terminfo database is for. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.1.9-11 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Read /etc/profile.d/colorls.* and groan. 2. 3. Actual Results: Use terminfo. Expected Results: Use terminfo. Additional info: Use terminfo.
