dfports/x11/xterm 196_3 -> 197

[Jeroen Ruigrok/asmodai]

I've set the default colours to 256.  I have been running this for a few
weeks now without any problems.

I am curious about results of other people.

For vim try this in your .vimrc:

if &term =~ "xterm"
  set t_Co=256
  if has("terminfo")
    set t_Sf=<ESC>3%p1%dm
    set t_Sb=<ESC>4%p1%dm
  else
    set t_Sf=<ESC>3%dm
    set t_Sb=<ESC>4%dm
  endif
endif

Where it says <ESC> create an escape character, either with the escape key
or CTRL-[

Syntax highlighting becomes so much better. :)
