--- Begin Message ---Package: xpdf Version: 3.03-10 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, I am a long time user of Xpdf, which I really like and use daily. I hoped that upgrading to the current Debian stable would fix a minor by annoying bug: neither the -fg nor the -bg option of Xpdf work. Here is an example with a PDF file (produced with LaTeX): ~/tmp>ls -l -rw-r--r-- 1 seb seb 296362 Mar 23 22:59 a.pdf ~/tmp>\xpdf -fg black a.pdf error: "black" file not found ~/temp>\xpdf -bg red a.pdf error: "red" file not found ~/tmp> and no window opens, whereas all is well with "\xpdf a.pdf". -fg black is, in fact, the default behaviour of Xpdf, but no other color seems to work either (I'd love cyan4, as in my Xterms...). Same if I try using -foreground (or --foreground). Strangely, the -rv (reverse video) works, although it should be equivalent to -fg white -bg black (which doesn't work). When I work on a large screen at night, I really like the background of all windows to be black. The rest of the time, the standard black fg on white bg is fine. Am I missing something so self-evident that it is not even in the man page? Can you reproduce this bug, which has been present in Xpdf for as long as I can remember, at least 5 years anyway? Please let me know if I can help by giving more examples.
