You forgot to specify what terminal emulator (or terminal) you are using. From my xterm, those two sequences display identically. As I understand it, the "^[[1m" part should turn bold on until it is turned off later by "^[[0m". Your terminal emulator may not correctly be combining the various state-changes that the three initial escape sequences specify. I tested this from bash via: printf "\033[01;34mfoo\n\033[00m" printf "\033[1m\033[38;5;4m\033[94mfoo\n\033[0m" It worked correctly inside of screen (attached to xterm). Screen's TERM is 'screen-bce', and xterm's TERM is 'xterm'. -- Erik _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list screen-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
