Color

Only the Tektronix color manipulation method can be used; for example, ANSI color terminals use the Tektronix method. The following entries are required:

Entry Mnemonic
No color video ncv
Number of colors colors
Set foreground setf
Set background setb
Original colors oc
Original pairs op

Only one of oc or op needs to be specified, but it must reset to the default colors.

Check that these entries are included in your terminfo database by running the mfinfocmp utility. See Terminfo Lister (mfinfocmp) for details.

Should you require, you can add entries to your terminfo database by running the operating system utility tic See your operating system manuals for details of how to do this. Alternatively, you can create a new set of COBOL-specific terminal details in a COBOL-specific terminfo database using the mftic utility. See Terminfo Compiler (mftic) for details.
