Color information loss with `nano`?

[matkuki]

Hi

I'm using Pyte to create a terminal emulator and most things work without problems, but when running the nano editor, the color information seems to be lost. This is a screenshot of running nano with Pyte: ... but it should look like this (this is example of running nano in a default terminal):

To test that my color handling is working I ran the 256 color test and I get this: ... so the color handling is correct.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

@superbobry I've also checked that there is no color information in the buffer, so when printing the bg and fg of each character, it's always default for both for all characters in the buffer, when the nano screen is loaded.

When reverse of character is True, you need to swap the default color ​​​​of fg and bg.
