[asterisk-users] Jumped from 1.2.7 to 1.4.19, missing CLI colors

[Joshua Kinard]

Seconded/thirded too.  Went from 1.4.18 to 1.4.19, stopped using -c and went to background and connecting using -r, and colors disappeared for me as well.  I'm using screen as well (ls -l --color=auto works fine in screen too).

Is there a documented "fix" available, or is this more just an odd curiosity regarding termtypes?

I cant get color using asterisk -r on 1.2.17 or 18 either.
