diffrence in colors presentation between vim/gvim

[r8b7xy]

Hex colors in my Xdefaults look diffrently when viewing them in vim and gvim.
Please look at S_base03/02.

Is it known bug?

It's a known limitation. Most terminals only support 256 colors, so colorizer has to "round up" the 256^3 colors to those, sometimes it will give poor results. Better results will require more time (and code) to compute.

Is this something east to fix or rather something to accept? :)

[lilydjwg]

It's hard to fix. You need a terminal that supports more colors in the first place, which I've never seen.

Here is the list of true color terminals: Colors in terminal
As far as I see it will be better to wait for true color support in urxvt :)

Wow, that's great! But then we'll wait for Vim to support it. I see ZyX's branch. I'll try that when I have time :-)
