Curses: support arbitrary RGB colorsHEADmaster-fmsbw-cimaster
* Instead of supporting only 16 predefined RGB placeholder
values in Scintilla messages and styles, you can now use
arbitrary RGB values and colors are allocated via the terminal
on the fly.
You no longer need to call 3EJ to change the default color
palette.
* The placeholder RGB values are still available.
Since you will usually want exact RGB values when using
anything outside of the range of 16 default colors
and the RGB placeholders will not always exactly correspond
to their RGB value, you can now call `0,3EJ` to ignore
the default palette and allocate all colors dynamically.
* Allows for more than 16 colors on the screen simultaneously.
Also simplifies the solarized.tes color scheme.
Since both Scinterm and SciTECO try not to touch the 16
default colors, you also no longer have to deal with
restoring the palette after program termination
(which was never reliable anyway).
* Color schemes with non-default colors (solarized.tes)
may now be broken on TERM=linux-16color (Linux VT)
since Scinterm will get only 8 colors, but solarized.tes
needs 16.
