New issue 5 by cooleyr: dim attribute non-functional
http://code.google.com/p/wy60/issues/detail?id=5
The Wy50/60 "dim" attribute appears to be non-functional. I expected I
would need to write code for it, but I do see what appears to be some code
to handle DIM.
I realize that TERM=xterm doesn't have a "dim" capability, so I modified
the terminfo db by adding one for xterm, but it still doesn't get used by
Wy60. I'm testing with a simple "tput dim", which works on a Wyse150
terminal, but not with Wy60.
Any pointers, or is the code just currently non-functional?

It works for me :-(
If I type
echo -ne '\033G@'
I see a different set of colors than when I reset back to the default with
echo -ne '\033G '
So, I a really need more details to track down why it doesn't work for you.
What
escape sequence are you sending to enable "dim" mode?
What capabilities does the terminal have that you are running in? If your
terminal
supports colors, wy60 will try to use those to indicate different
attributes.
Most people like that, but maybe that's what is confusing you?
Check the code in updateAttributes() to see what attributes you should
expect to get.
The code tries the most generic combination of attributes first. But if the
host
terminal is too limited, it will fall be on increasingly more limited sets
of
attributes. If you have a very limited terminal, it is quite conceivable
that not all
of the attributes can be represented.

Sorry for the noise. Simple typo in my testing. Your response sent me in
the right
direction. Thanks again.
