Hi all,
Xterm has default colours (colour0-15) in /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm-color
which affects the colors used by a console app. in an xterm.
Is there a way to assign a different colour map to different xterms?
I want to have one set of colours for midnight commander, and another
set for vim
The KDE's kvt keeps setting TERM to xterm-color, which is no good since
other systems do not like it. I'd like to make it just xterm on a
system-wise basis (so that every user does not have to do it manually). Do
you know which file is to be modified ?
What puzzles me though is that a

I'm having trouble with color support in xterm.

Are you sure it isn't? The usual distribution of app-defaults for XTerm
doesn't include the XTerm-color part (installing xterm-color will do that

Hiya,
I think it's great how many solutions folks have come up with for xterm
color problems. Here's what I did, although it's not quite as elegant
as the others

ions, to no avail.
However, when I added the contents of the following file
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/XTerm-color
to my .Xresources file and restarted X, the colors started to work.

Yes indeed. And that means you need this resource line:

is the definition for xterm, set to the definition for xterm-color? Read the
/etc/termcap (termcap compatibility package). Try setting your TERMINFO
variable with the proper information for color xterm (if it isn't set).
If it does display colors, then your

How in the world do I get colors to display in xterm? The release notes for
3.2 say that "colour support is now included by default," but when I do
"ls --color" all I get is mono with bold. If I do the same thing in an rxvt
window, I get colors.
