Re: 't_Co' is always set to 256 if 'nocompatible' is set

Yes, the xterm I'm using supports 256 colors. I actually switched my
operating system recently, so thats probably the reason I didn't experienced
this before (can't remember how many colors xterm supported there).

I set TERM to 'xterm-16color' because I want all programs (and especially Vim)
to use only 16 colors.

Anyway, it seems like I have to hardcode 't_Co' in my vimrc which is quite ugly.
Or can I somehow force Vim to use the appropriate terminfo entry instead?
