what i found in man xterm - try it:

       -bdc    Set  the vt100 resource colorBDMode to FALSE, dis
               abling  the  display  of  characters   with   bold
               attribute as color

       +bdc    Set   the  vt100  resource  colorBDMode  to  TRUE,
               enabling  the  display  of  characters  with  bold
               attribute as color rather than bold

       -cm     This option disables recognition  of  ANSI  color-
               change escape sequences.

       +cm     This  option  enables  recognition  of ANSI color-
               change escape sequences.  This is the same as  the
               vt100 resource colorMode.
