Nice suggestion. Although I can't seem where one would have to look for those "pretty colours" you mentioned, I certainly can't see any of them on my Mac terminal...

Can't help you there -- but I don't think I've set any exotic terminal variables or anything like that, and I get this:

FWIW, I have:

    COLORTERM=gnome-terminal
    TERM=screen

and Debian takes care of my termcap etc, afaik.

Think its his TERM env most likely being straight xterm (no color ansi escapes in the termcap iirc).

Thats me on osx running tmux with TERM=xterm-256color.
