Hi,

i tried to make the pine to use 16 colors in linux text console, and i can't
get it working, only 8 colors work doesn't matter what i do, the pine is
version 4.21 running on debian 2.2.5, TERM TERMINFO and TERMCAP is set to
'linux', i've recompiled the pine to use TERMCAP instead TERMINFO, and modified
the /etc/termcap file to this:

linux|linux console:\
	:am:eo:mi:ms:xn:xo:\
	:it#8:\
	:AL=\E[%dL:DC=\E[%dP:DL=\E[%dM:IC=\E[%d@:K2=\E[G:al=\E[L:\
	:bl=^G:cd=\E[J:ce=\E[K:cl=\E[H\E[J:cm=\E[%i%d;%dH:cr=^M:\
	:cs=\E[%i%d;%dr:ct=\E[3g:dc=\E[P:dl=\E[M:do=^J:ec=\E[%dX:\
	:ei=\E[4l:ho=\E[H:ic=\E[@:im=\E[4h:k1=\E[[A:k2=\E[[B:\

	:k9=\E[20~:kD=\E[3~:kI=\E[2~:kN=\E[6~:kP=\E[5~:kb=\177:\
	:kd=\E[B:kh=\E[1~:kl=\E[D:kr=\E[C:ku=\E[A:le=^H:mh=\E[2m:\
	:mr=\E[7m:nd=\E[C:nw=^M^J:rc=\E8:sc=\E7:se=\E[27m:sf=^J:\
	:sr=\EM:st=\EH:ta=^I:ue=\E[24m:up=\E[A:us=\E[4m:\
	:vb=200\E[?5h\E[?5l:ve=\E[?25h:vi=\E[?25l:\
	:Co#16:AF=\E[%i%i%>\001\034%>\045\064%dm:\
	:AB=\E[%i%i%>\001\046%>\057\064%dm:\
        :op=\E[39;49m:\
	:ut:

i tried both, force-ansi-16color and use-termdef options but it still shows
only 8 colors, can someone please help me with this and tell me what else i
have to change to make it work ?

					Thanks,
                                                Dingo.
