What happens if you execute as follows ?
$ echo -e "\x1b[5maaaa\x1b[m"
aaaa <= blinking
$ mlcc bl_color red
$ echo -e "\x1b[5maaaa\x1b[m"
aaaa <= Not blinking
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Oh, my. This was not about mlterm. It's about this https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1648170
Apologies for the noise — I recently switched to newer version of the distro I use and at first glance I thought it was mlterm that sort of misbehaved but eventually mlterm is fine =) Thanks for the help finding the culprit =)
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
--bl option (or $ mlcc bl_color xxx) which sets alternate color to blinking characters disables blinking.
But it disabled blinking but didn't set alternate color. Following commit fixes it.

Could you please give an example of value for
bl_color
— I tried differrent values but it didn't disable blinking =(For example, doesn't --bl=red disable blinking ?
