Yes, the terminal does not understand colors. It's two-color at the
moment.
I plan to make this terminal more like normal terminal
emulators, but now it's just plans. Actually what I am really going
to do is to add something like syntax highlighting, as in the editor;
so that it will possible to highlight expressions or gap prompt, or
whatever, without gap code.

Thank you very much for your efforts in installing ggap, you really
helped me a lot.
