title: How can I get more colors in Python's curses?
body: <p>I'm working on a project for school right now, and I'm using curses. Although, I am a bit disappointed on the restrict of colors. The colorama module has LOTS more colors, and they work on my Terminal, so I know my terminal is capable of lots of colors. Although, in Curses, we only have</p>
  
  <pre><code>COLOR_BLACK
  COLOR_RED
  COLOR_GREEN
  COLOR_YELLOW
  COLOR_BLUE
  COLOR_MAGENTA
  COLOR_CYAN
  COLOR_WHITE
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It would be REALLY nice if there where more colors.</p>
  
  <p>Note: Colorama gives ANSI escape codes, and doesn't work with Curses, so no shortcut there.</p>
