Re: [9fans] Drawterm on MacOS X; weird colormap?

[Axel Belinfante <Axel.Belinfante@cs.utwente.nl>]

This sounds similar to what I got when I run Solaris 
drawterm with 24bit color -- although I forgot about the
exact color shift; my message about it should be in the
archives. I played a bit trying to fix it but never got
the right colors -- now I'm just using drawterm with 8bit
color (I changed the order in which the different color depths
are tried in drawterm, I think).

I'll have a look again using Russ' reply as inspiration.
