Even worse is running a terminal inside of emacs. ansi-term can only display 8 colors, even though the editor it's running in can support (at least) 256. As someone who runs a large percentage of their shells inside of emacs, this is a particular annoyance, especially because presumably adding in the remaining colors would be a trivial task for someone familiar with the code.

- technomancy 10y agoI used to be bothered by this, and then I realized for every thing I wanted to do in the terminal, 5 minutes of searching would usually find a superior UI to do the same task in an Emacs-native way that I could effortlessly customize, rebind keys, add hooks for, and rewrite functionality live. About the only exception I can think for this is htop; M-x proced does most of the same things but doesn't look as nice doing it.
