247 --enable-256-color (default: off)
248 Force use of so-called 256 colour mode, to work around buggy
249 applications that do not support termcap/terminfo, or simply improve
250 support for applications hardcoding the xterm 256 colour table.
251
252 This switch breaks termcap/terminfo compatibility to
253 "TERM=rxvt-unicode", and consequently sets "TERM" to
254 "rxvt-unicode-256color" by default (doc/etc/ contains
255 termcap/terminfo definitions for both).
256
257 It also results in higher memory usage and can slow down rxvt
258 dramatically when more than six fonts are in use by a terminal
259 instance.
