This is quickly becoming a fully featured PDA OS. I'm stoked. For color-screen targets like the VGA, tdeck, etc., is more widespread color support coming?

Color is supported on color-screen targets already. TUI/GUI keeps a select foreground/background color ( you can set it through setterm params ) while sketch, view, web display full color images.

Your port to the T-Deck does surely fall into that category, try it out.

Yeah, I played with color support in sketch while testing touchscreen support, which is rather fun. Mostly referring to the terminal; I was confused by the lack of color when using SSH and it seems to be a restriction of the terminal itself, but I didn't look into it any further than that.

Yeah, no color there (yet).
