First of all: are you using the console qua console, or are you
running X?

If you are using the console, it is really a question of whether the
applications you are running grok color or not. It is up to the
application. If it sends the right control characters to the console,
it gets whatever colors it wants. pcvt and wscons will handle any kind 
of colors you can ask for.

It might be a question, of course, of what sort of curses library you
are linking against, since BSD curses doesn't understand
color support. However, we are about to import ncurses...
