Oh, OK. Yes, that could be affecting it. See if you can change your
TERM setting to something like "vt100-color" while using putty.
It sounds like dfuife_curses is detecting that your terminal doesn't
support colours, and is switching to "monochrome mode", which was never
well tested (and as you point out, it doesn't highlight the focused
widget properly.) I'll work on making it more usable, if I can find
some time in the next few days. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

That's really kind of bizarre. What kind of monitor/video card is this?
