16 Colors (PC style)

Enables the PC style mapping of bold color. In this mode, the bold (blink) attribute is used as a color attribute bit for text (background). This option increases the number of colors for text and background specified by escape sequences twice, from 8 to 16.

16 Colors (aixterm style)

Enables aixterm style 16 colors mode. This option increases the number of colors for text and background specified by escape sequences twice, from 8 to 16.
NOTE: The escape sequence(<CSI>100m) which changes the background color to the color number nine would conflict the escape sequence of the resetting rxvt-style characters and background color. So, if a user enables this mode, the behavior of <CSI>100m escape sequence will work never before.
If a user does not like this behavior, turn off this option.

256 Colors (xterm style)

Enables xterm style 256 colors mode. This option increases the number of colors for text and background specified by escape sequences twice, from 8 to 256.
Also, a user can change the color table by the escape sequence.

Scroll buffer

Enables the scroll buffer. If enabled, the number of lines in the scroll buffer (including the displayed area) can be specified. The maximum number of lines is 10000. If memory is not enough, this value is reduced automatically.
