Both of those URLs are 404 for me. FYI, with my Autoconf hat on, I will not be inclined to take patches that hardcode "ANSI" terminal control codes. $TERM must be honored in detail. The easiest way to do that is probably to probe for the existence of the `tput` command and then use that to set shell variables with all the necessary control codes. When working on patches for Automake, also keep in mind that $TERM might change between "./configure" and "make". zw
