5.3 The different colors

CGDB supports several colors, depending on how many colors your terminal supports. Below is a chart of the colors that CGDB provides. The heading NR-16 is used to represent terminals that support at least 16 colors. The heading NR-8 is used to represent terminals that support at least 8 colors. The integer values for each color represent the values passed to the curses function init_pair() to ask curses to create a new color.
