New submission from Richard s. Gordon:
Curses bug report for Python 2.7 and Python 3.2
My Python code outputs text properly with xterm and xterm-16color. It does not
work properly with xterm-88color and xterm-256color (after defining RGB color
pallet) when run on Python-2.7 and Python-3.2 on Cygwin with Windows 7 Pro,
Ubuntu Linux 12.04, Mac OS X 10.9.3 and PS-BSD 10.
For text output to xterm-88color and xterm-256color Python generates unique
colors that are plagued by the wrong color and underline artifacts.
xterm-16color xterm-16color
xterm-88color xterm-256color
========== ==========
========== ===========
Region 1 cyan on black cyan on black
cyan on olive with underlines cyan on purple with
underlines
Region 2 white on black white on black
navy on black white on orange
Region 3 yellow on black yellow on black magenta
on black with underlines navy on black with underlines
Some of my test platform terminals (such as iTerm2 on my iMac desktop system
running Mac OSX Mavericks 10.9.3) default to xterm-256color and presumably
already have Python 2.7.5 built for 256 color. I downloaded and built Python
3.2.2.
My Python test code works properly with xterm and xterm-16color. Both display
the wrong colors, some with underlines when run with xterm-88color and
xterm-256color.
Any solutions or suggestions?
