In the 'Links' manual, there is a section called "Colours", which
describes the 'named' and 'numeric' colors supported. When I view the
"colours" page from 'Links' the colors table renders as follows:

Color	Shows As     Color	    Shows As      Color	      Shows As
----------------     -------------------      -------------------
black   silver       red      bold white      blue        teal
yellow  bold white   gray     silver          silver      silver
white   bold white   maroon   maroon          purple      purple
fuschia bold white   olive    brown           navy        teal
teal    teal         aqua     bold white      lime        bold white
green   green

I've got ansi.sys loaded -- wouldn't _that_ have an adverse effect?

Maybe this has to do with the HTML that 'Links' supports. Is there a list
of what it does support? Anyway, would you view the 'Links' manual from
Links and determine if what _you_ see is what I see, please. Otherwise
maybe my terminfo/termcap files are hosed or in the wrong location, or
something that still eludes me. TIA....
