command to show the list of 256 colours available in terminal
The other day I bumped into a command to list the colours available in my terminal. I since then reinstalled (toying with different distro's) and I just can't remind or find that command. It was a command and if I remember correctly it took one option after which it gave a long list of the colour numbers in their respective colours. Something like this, but then a long scrolling list:
for COLOR in {1..255}; do echo -en "\e[38;5;${COLOR}m${COLOR} "; done; echo;
Can anyone suggest which command it might have been... so annoying I forgot...
