Thoughts on forcing $TERM string

Open ghost opened this issue 10 years ago • 1 comments

According to http://blog.sanctum.geek.nz/term-strings/, forcing a $TERM string can cause unexpected results. Hoping to open a conversation about any noticeable instances where this has caused problems.

First off let me just say, I assume the reason for forcing the $TERM string is to get 256 colors. If there is any other reason, I'm curious to know.

Second, I've shied away from implementing this as I haven't found any term clients that don't support 256 colors. Do you have any?
