Bug Description

I can't seem to be able to set the color of bold text, as in gnome-terminal.
See any man page, the bold text is only a brighter version of "Text color".
Gnome terminal allows to set that color separately, and that is what I wish I could do in terminator as well.

It should be possible in GTK2 and GTK3 versions. Just needs the widgets and code doing.

Hello,

this issue is very annoying to me: white bold text ruins my color palette. I'd like to work on this, but I need some pointers. I tried grepping the source for "bold" but the only results I found were about allowing bold text, and not the color it would have. I also tried replacing all occurrences of "ffffff" and "FFFFFF", but the color didn't change, so apparently this is handled by some 3rd party library. Where should I look for it?

I would really like to fix this - Terminator is so nice, and I would like to continue using it.
