Does this mean you're not using xterm?  I ask because colour ncurses
applications work correctly for me with a stock XFree86 xterm in which I
do this:

	export TERM=xterm-color

Perhaps you should give us more detail on what you're trying to do and
how it's failing, particularly with respect to the name of the
application you're using? :-)

Ciao,
Sheldon.
