It offers (SCO)ANSI, Linux, VT{100,102,220} terminal emulations, but no matter which one I choose, I don't get any color support. It looks like the term. actually strips any color codes off the data, since with $CLICOLOR_FORCE=1 $ ls -la | most written in the console ($TERM=cons25) will _display_ the color codes (instead of just colorizing the characters; this is another issue I'd like to resolve), while no color codes display if I type that in the term. software. Also, connecting to other machines running Linux, the color support works just fine ($TERM=vt220). Since it looks like there's nothing I can do about the win32 term. emul. software, is there anything on the FreeBSD side I can do to get colors?
