gnome-256color is a TERM value supported by recent vte/gnome-terminal for 256-colour support (same as xterm-256color). It would be useful for /etc/bash/bashrc to recognise it when setting stuff for colour terminals.

added to cvs, no ver bump thanks
I know that this bug is already closed but I would like that you add a new terminal in the bashrc file to support TERM=cygwin . The cygwin terminals can support colors too and the PROMPT_COMMAND to change the title. Should I report as a new bug report?
