I've submitted a patch for the elinks Portfile that contains a  
variant +col256 that does what you want and shows you one possible  
way to do it. ;-)

You can get it from http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ 
ticket/10990

Thanks for the patch!!

I did the following:
prompt> curl -o Portfile.patch http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/attachment/ticket/10990/Portfile.patch?format=raw
prompt> cp /opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports/www/elinks/Portfile  ~/Portfile.elinks.old
prompt> sudo patch /opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports/www/elinks/Portfile < Portfile.patch
prompt> sudo port deactivate elinks
prompt> sudo port install elinks +col256


And now I have 256 colors!!! Nice! Thanks for the patch!! Appreciate it,

Veera.
