I don't remember what was the original question, but I found both ansi and
ansi-emx to give satisfactory results as "term" entry. That said, it depends
for what program. I usually modify the term entry on the fly because of that:
elvis doesn't like the ansi "term" at all, whereas gnuinfo has nice colors
with ansi-emx :-)
