Steps to reproduce

(in bash): echo -e "\033[01;34mBright \033[00m \033[1;38;5;4mShould be\033[00m"

Expected Behavior

Both come out blue, with your selected intensity effect from "intenseTextStyle", similar to Putty, iTerm, etc.

Actual Behavior

The intensity effect is only applied in the first case ("Bright"), and not in the second ("Should Be")

Thanks for the report! This was an intentional decision, based on how other terminal emulators work. I went and dug up some of our older discussions to give you more context. 😄

Here's the short version:

I'll tentatively close this one out as a /duplicate of #5384 😄

I went and dug up some of our older discussions to give you more context. :smile: Here's the short version: * xterm 331 chose to brighten 256-indexed colors 0-7 * xterm 348 silently reverted this behavior * An issue was filed on libvte (engine powering gnome-terminal) documenting the above: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/vte/-/issues/149 * We have an issue discussing this: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/5384 I'll tentatively close this one out as a /duplicate of #5384 :smile:
