Changing the "color#" value is not going to help.
The shades of color are (almost always) set by external configuration
details (e.g., resource values for xterm). Different terminal emulators
provide support for different numbers of colors - typically 8. A few
allow 16. XFree86 xterm does 8/16/88/256 (with appropriate terminfo,
and application that knows how to use it).
