WSL True Color not working.

[sarahkittyy]

I use this WSL distro: https://github.com/yuk7/ArchWSL

How to reproduce

• Enable ConPTY
• Open Fluent, use the default powershell profile.
• wsl
• Note the colors (true color is working).
• Now exit.
• Open actual powershell
• flute.exe run wsl
• Note the colors (true color is not working).

This is an issue because the WSL distro I sent has an option to use fluent terminal as default, and if I use that, and start the distro from the Arch.exe executable, true colors break.

Started normally (by typing wsl):

Started indirectly, through Arch.exe or through flute.exe run wsl

check whether ConPty is enabled in Settings/General (last toggle on the page)

ConPTY is enabled.

Try turning it off, Sarah.  ConPTY has been known to cause a bunch of weird issues.

true color is only supported for ConPty, so that won't help

Oh! Good to know - is that in the docs anywhere?

I found the problem, it will be fixed in the next release (or if you build it from master)

Might be worth documenting, you're right.
