Message:

• configure.ac: + Default to ncurses, not slang, because slang only has 128 colour pairs.
• src/caca.c: + Disable scrolling to avoid hashmap scrolling optimization code.
• src/graphics.c: + Swap fg and bg in the colour pair indexing, so that bg is always

right.

+ Disable alt charset support to exploit my patched slang.

    o  S-Lang:
 
+      256 character pairs are definable, but only 128 can be used. This is
+      because slsmg.c's This_Color variable uses its 8th bit to indicate an
+      alternate character set. Replacing a few 0x7F with 0xFF in sldisply.c
+      works around the problem but gets rid of the alternate charset.
+
    o  MS-DOS: all bright colours, bright backgrounds, and bright combinations
       work using <conio.h>. No need to kludge anything.
