16 ansi colors names

[lobre]

I would like to try to reproduce the theme I have always used in vim, which is noctu, a simple theme for 16-color terminals.

In vim, I can refer to colors by their number.

hi Pmenu ctermfg=15 ctermbg=0

So I can easily target the 16 first colors. Kakoune also has names for those 16 first colors.

In vis, I don't find if this is doable. I can see the 8 first colors are declared here

But how do I refer to the ones from 8 to 15?

Thank you, if I understand, this means it is not supported yet and we can only the 8 first colors at the moment. No need to keep this issue open then. This can be followed in the linked issue.
