I'm having an irritating problem with the coloring of comments in emacs. Specifically, when I run emacs in screen, the comment coloring disappears; when emacs is run outside of screen, everything is normal. See the attached image.
Has anyone run into this, or know of a fix?
Thanks.
I have found a fix for this.
Add the line "term xterm-color" to the start of the ~/.screenrc file and the line "export TERM=xterm-color" to the ~/.bashrc file.
This keeps the 8 colours which are available by default. If you want the 256 colour range, just change the "xterm-color" string from above to "xterm-256color".
Sorry to resurrect an old thread but THANK YOU! This was driving me crazy!
Many thanks, too! I almost abandoned screen because of this problem.
