Description (last modified by metux) (diff)
When using ncurses, there is problem with setting default color to transparent on capable terminals. This is caused by color index going from 0+ but the default terminal color is -1 in ncurses. So mc doesnt show true default color, but BLACK.
This also has to be dependant on terminal support, if it supports default colors or not. Good inspiration about this is in htop source -> CRT.c -> CRT_setColors
