    2.  The older versions of Term::ANSIColor dependency do not recognize
        bright/RGB settings, falling back to the default behavior (plain 16
        colors). However, the whole Term::ANSIColor is optional, it is only
        required to preview the effects of the "OPTIONS" via command line
        before actually editing the ~/.tmux.conf. That is, "rainbarf
        --bright --tmux" is guaranteed to work despite the outdated
        Term::ANSIColor!

    Another option is skipping the system colors altogether and use the RGB
    palette ("rainbarf --rgb"). This fixes the *issue 1*, but doesn't affect
    the *issue 2*. It still looks better, though.

  Persistent storage
    CPU utilization stats are persistently stored in the ~/.rainbarf.dat
    file. Every rainbarf execution will update and rotate that file. Since
    "tmux" calls rainbarf periodically (every 15 seconds, by default), the
    chart will display CPU utilization for the last ~9.5 minutes (15 * 38).
    Thus, several "tmux" instances running simultaneously for the same user
    will result in a faster chart scrolling.
