Sorry I missed the original question, being a JED user, and the author of
(one of?) the JED port(s).

Using the port I created, which I don't think I did anything special for
color handling, I've noticed that I automatically get colorization when
I'm using the console or an xterm (the 3.2 xterm, which does handle
color natively), but I have to "export COLORTERM=Y" in order to get
colorization in rxvt.

Feel free to contact me about any questions, or if you can't find
the port (is the incoming directory readable?) though I'm far from a JED
expert.
