For Solaris, I *highly* recommend the xterm source tree that Thomas
Dickey maintains.
http://dickey.his.com/xterm/
I've tried aterm, wterm, Eterm, native xterm, dtterm, rxvt, commandtool
(et al.), gnome-terminal, and at least one other terminal app on Solaris
(besides Terminal.app itself :)), and only this xterm has given me color
with no pain.
Well, except that it crashes whenever I try to use an xterm menu under
en_US.ISO8859-15. That's a little weird, but I'm not too stuck on the
euro symbol. And I see 15 new patch-levels since I last installed it, so
emaybe that's resolved.
