As you wish. I personally would consider it relevant to the wiki, but others would disagree. > PuTTY currently does not support 256-color mode. See > http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/wishlist/256-colours.html That page indicates that putty had supported 256 colours since 2004. I was sure I had used them when I last used putty (a while ago). It's right that little client software uses the extra colours: I configure mutt to use the extra greyscale range for increasing or decreasing the prominence of mailing list posters by sender. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
