Hi, there's a VTE-based terminal emulator that does support ls colors,
but its termtype "xterm-termite" is not included in dircolors's

The terminal emulator's project page is at

Thank you,

Why did termite need to distinguish its terminal capabilities like this?
That $TERM will not work with lots of things. For example:

   $ TERM=xterm tput colors
   8

   $ TERM=xterm-termite tput colors
   tput: unknown terminal "xterm-termite"

I'd be more inclined to get termite to reconsider its TERM choice.

Pádraig

Actually tput works correctly for me even when using TERM=xterm-termite, and except from ls colors I haven't noticed any other problems so far. Anyway, I've informed termite's developer about this discussion, let's see if he's interested in replying.
