Hi BillLee...

I am not familiar with ncurses but to get an extended range to the colours in the shell the __bold__ attribute has be on...

I assume that there is a BOLD attribute for ncurses...

This is an example, note the second loop might not work in some terminals...
Code:
#!/bin/bash
# colours.sh
n=0
for fg in {30..37}
do
	for bg in {40..47}
	do
		for bold in 0 1
		do
			# 1 = bold ON.
			printf "\x1B["$bold";"$bg";"$fg"m Line $n, bold = $bold, background = $bg, foreground = $fg...\x1B[0m\n"
			n=$((n+1))
		done
	done
done
for fg in {90..97}
do
	for bg in {100..107}
	do
		for bold in 0 1
		do
			# 1 = bold ON.
			printf "\x1B["$bold";"$bg";"$fg"m Line $n, bold = $bold, background = $bg, foreground = $fg...\x1B[0m\n"
			n=$((n+1))
		done
	done
done
