Thanks. The other useful one is to see whether it does 256 colours
properly like real xterm does. The following bash script, when run with
'256' as its argument, should look the same as it does when run under
a real xterm.


#!/usr/bin/env bash
# vim: set sw=3D4 sts=3D4 et :

[[ -z "${1}" ]] && cat <<END && exit 1
Usage: ${0} [count]

count should usually be either 88 (rxvt-based terminals) or 256
(xterm-based terminals).
END

echo -n "  0: "
for (( a =3D 0 ; a < ${1} ; a++ )) ; do
    echo -n -e "\e[38;5;${a#0}m#\e[48;5;${a#0}mX\e[0;0m "
    [[ -z "${a##*9}" ]] && echo -n -e "\n\e[0;0m$(printf '%3d' ${a} ): "
done
echo -e "\e[0;0m" ; echo
