color display with man pages

[Amila Perera]

Hi all,

This is my first mail on fedora mailing list.

I can't get the following to display colours with LESS command on my
terminal,
when viewing man pages.
I am using Fedora 20 with KDE. My shell is zsh.
-----------
man()
{
env LESS_TERMCAP_mb=$'\E[01;31m' \
LESS_TERMCAP_md=$'\E[01;34m' \
LESS_TERMCAP_me=$'\E[0m' \
LESS_TERMCAP_se=$'\E[0m' \
LESS_TERMCAP_so=$'\E[01;33;40m' \
LESS_TERMCAP_ue=$'\E[0m' \
LESS_TERMCAP_us=$'\E[01;04;35m' \
man "$@"
}
-----------

The same function works perfectly fine in Ubuntu.

I tried serveral terminals like Konsole, Guake, Terminology, but none of
them seem to display the
colors.

Can someone explain me why this doesn't display the colors in Fedora 20.
Is there any workaround to solve this problem?

Thank you in advance.
