I have run into an ERROR with SBT today. It can best be shown with the sbt sbt-version command:
sbt sbt-version
Run on 5/29/17:
eric@linux-x2vq:~$ sbt s
You can add export TERM=xterm-color to the top of /usr/share/sbt/bin/sbt because $HOME/.sbtconfig is deprecated.
export TERM=xterm-color
/usr/share/sbt/bin/sbt
$HOME/.sbtconfig
