Found this nice tip but haven't tried it myself. http://linuxtidbits.wordpress.com/2009/03/23/less-colors-for-man-pages/ -- Earnie ------ Thanks for all the help. Earnie's suggestion worked. I ended up adding: export LESS_TERMCAP_md=$'\e[1;34m' in ~/.bashrc, which paints those in bold blue. Alternatively, making the cmd background a light grey instead of completely white also works in that the original bold white color is clearly visible. saurabh -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
