sed: -e expression #1, char 21: unterminated `s' command

64
Which in turn is wrong, because:
PROMPT> infocmp | grep colors#
colors#8, cols#80, it#8, lines#24, pairs#64,
it should have returned "8".
You sed expression is too greedy.
So make it:
-> source $HOME/.muttrc-color-`infocmp | grep 'colors#' | \
sed 's/.*colors#\([0-9]\+\).*/\1/'

On another note: Who said VTE/gnome-terminal has 256 colors?
See above, mine ($TERM=xterm) has 8. :-/ You may need to change some
options though...
PROMPT> gnome-terminal --version
Gnome gnome-terminal 2.16.0
PROMPT> rpm -qR gnome-terminal | grep -i vte
libvte.so.9
vte >= 0.12.0-2
PROMPT> rpm -q vte
vte-0.14.2-1.fc6
(Fedora Core 6)
Just to get things straight,
