Description
Hey, I've just discovered micro (long time nano user) and I really like it, thanks for working on this. The ease of installation is a godsend - no longer do I have to compile new versions of nano on our HPC cluster!
I noticed some mistakes in in > help colors
Description of the problem or steps to reproduce
- Try to set colour scheme to
atom-dark-tcorgithub-tcusing> set colorscheme - Get error message about non-existent colour scheme
atom-dark (without the -tc suffix) works, but github doesn't.
$COLORTERM is set to truecolor, $MICRO_TRUECOLOR is set to 1.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with help colors and set colorscheme for atom-dark-tc, github-tc, atom-dark, and github in micro. Trace how the listed truecolour schemes are registered and selected. Done means the schemes listed in help colors can be selected successfully when truecolour is enabled, without non-existent-colour-scheme errors.
