# This skin demonstrates how to use 256 colors in mc. # # As a prerequisite, you will need to: # 1) Have a terminal emulator that supports 256 colors (a few examples: # xterm, Gnome terminal and other VTE derivatives, KDE's Konsole; # iTerm for Mac OS X, PuTTY for Windows). # 2) Adjust your TERM variable accordingly, e.g.: export TERM=xterm-256color # Verify by running tput colors # # Each of the 256 colors has two names, you can use whichever you prefer. # # One possibility is to use the names "color0" to "color255" to access every # color directly based on their number. # # The first 16 colors ("color0" to "color15") can also be specified by their # names (these names are already being used by mc for 8/16 color terminals): # black gray # red brightred # green brightgreen # brown yellow # blue brightblue # magenta brightmagenta # cyan brightcyan # lightgray white # Note that with 8/16 color terminal settings (such as TERM=xterm), colors # of the second column can only be used for the foreground, and their actual # interpretation varies across terminals. Some terminals show the colors # from the first column instead (that is, you only have 8 colors), but make # them bold. Others show the brighter version (16 foreground colors). Yet # others make them bold and bright at the same time. Switching to 256 colors # should end this ambiguity: you should have 16 separate colors according to # their names, none of them are bold by default but any of them can be # switched to bold, and all of them are available for background, too. This # is the intended behavior, the actual behavior might vary across terminals. # # Colors of the 6x6x6 cube ("color16" to "color231") can alternatively be # referred to as "rgb000" to "rgb555", all three digits ranging from 0 to 5, # corresponding to the R, G and B color components. # # The 24 grayscale colors ("color232" to "color255") have the aliases "gray0" # to "gray23". # # In addition to the 256 colors, the special word "default" means the # default foreground or background color of your terminal, while "base" means # mc's main colors. A missing value means falling back to the _default_ of the # given section. # # Following the foreground and background colors, the third (optional) value # can specify special attributes to enable. Valid values are bold, underline, # reverse and blink. Append more with a plus sign, e.g. "underline+bold". # Leaving the field empty makes it fall back to the attributes of _default_. # Use any other word (e.g. "none") to prevent fallback and disable all flags.
