https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=291519 --- Comment #6 from Oliver Epper <oliver.epper@gmail.com> --- Ok. So Ghostty brings its own terminfo that supports colors. You can get it from within Ghostty simply by running infocmp. You can run either `infocmp -C`, or `infocmp | tic -C -` to get a termcap compatible entry. But termcap seems to have limited support for capabilities compared to terminfo. I am not sure if it is ok to put terminfo entires into FreeBSDs termcap file. I am suprised, that xterm-256color brings the "terminfo"-capability "Color#256". If that is ok, we could simply copy the terminfo entry for Ghostty, right? I think that would be clearer. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
