In the previous post about ANSI
escape sequences, terminfo, and the tput
utility, what I did not mention is that even though a given color such as blue or cyan is requested, it is beyond the program’s control the actual color the user will see. A legitimate question is why would red not be red or magenta not be magenta? In a word, themes. Now themes are not a bad thing as they help to give a desktop a cohesive look across applications. Desktop theme authors desire to extend their creativity to the Linux console and that is where the trouble begins.
