- Good news: hpterm supports colors (with the strangest set of escape
- codes this side of EBCDIC).
-
- Bad news: you can only have eight distinct color combinations
- displayed at a time?!
-
- Is there no way around this limitation? Is there no replacement for
- hpterm -- perhaps someone's hacked xterm -- that can display more than
- eight color combinations at once? Perspiring minds want to know!
