--- Comment #2 from Tom Tromey <tromey at sourceware dot org> ---
I can think of two options here.

One is to change the tui-out object to be able to parse
terminal escape sequences.  Then it could turn these into
ncurses color calls.  This seems like a pain but maybe it
would not be too bad.

The other is to change extended-prompt to have explicit
color support and then change the TUI to understand that somehow.
This route may not be so easy since normally gdb just
prints whatever the python code gave it.
