It is amazing the kind of code you write.  :)

            int x = (varnish->bright) ? (x = A_BOLD) : (x = 0)

A double assignment?  First x = A_BOLD, or x = 0, and then again
assign this to int x?  Weird.

You don't have to look at that at all.
Just make the two statements exactly this:

            wattron(edit, varnish->attributes);

            wattroff(edit, varnish->attributes);

Then add this attributes element to the colortype, and see where
you have to initiliaze it -- shortly after the pair is initialized.

Look at line 65 of color.c for inspiration.
