I recently discovered that if I log in to my Debian system without lightDM, just using the commandline prompt, and then instead of typing startx straight away actually use the commandline, the coloring in man pages is better than I've ever seen. Not in terms of choice of color, that's always cyan, but in how the colors are applied.echo $TERMlinuxI haven't been able to get this linux setting to work in Xfce-terminal, evidently because it requires termcap, which is not in Debian repositories anymore, not even the compat package that used to be there until 2005.Is there another terminal I can use that will give me the same coloring as I get in the login console? I haven't been able to get the default xterm program to show colors, and I read that the gnome-terminal and several others all share the same code base as xfce4-terminal.Please note I've tried other solutions I have found with research, including using Vim as man pager, editing .bashrc or .Xdefaults, etc. Nothing works like the linux setting in login tty console.My current workaround is to press Ctrl+Alt+F2 and log in to another tty console. But I'd like to avoid doing that and have the linux coloring in the terminal emulator.
Terminal emulator for Debian Xfce that will accept $TERM=linux, just like login console tty uses?
