_______________________________________________________
Details:
Even though the surrounding terminal supports 256-colors and thus 38;5;nn
escapes, screen seem to rewrite those sequences for at least colors 0 through
7 to 30+nn instead. This causes color errors when combing whith bold (1) as
30+nn together with bold usually maps to colors nn+8, and thus any of the
first 8 colors is then displayed as bright intensity in addition to bold.
See the two supplied images, the first showing how gnome-terminal displays the
colors (and how they should be), the second how the same output in screen
causes translation of escape codes an thus the display of wrong colors.
The same happens with xterm as the surrounding terminal.
