Obviously I hadn't thought that through since there is no xterm in the base system, but both the xterm and rxvt termcap entries seem to work on the console. Just to be sure I made up a colorized cons25 entry. I left in the underline attribute, even though the console doesn't seem to support underline. I also added the nc capability that Thomas Dickey suggested should be used. The revised version of my ~/.termcap is below if anybody is interested: -------- start ~/.termcap ------------- # these are just changes to the standard FreeBSD termcap - 2010-12-13 cdj # added cons25 and nc capability - 2011-10-26 cdj xterm|xterm-color|X11 terminal emulator:\ :md=\E[33;1m:so=\E[36;1m:se=\E[0m:us=\E[32;4m:ue=\E[0;24m:nc#35:\ :ti@:te@:tc=xterm-xfree86: rxvt|rxvt terminal emulator (X Window System):\ :md=\E[33;1m:so=\E[36;1m:se=\E[0m:us=\E[32;4m:ue=\E[0;24m:nc#35:\ :pa#64:Co#8:AF=\E[3%dm:AB=\E[4%dm:op=\E[39;49m:\ :tc=rxvt-mono: cons25|colorized version of cons25|:\ :md=\E[33;1m:so=\E[36;1m:se=\E[0m:us=\E[32;4m:ue=\E[0;24m:nc#35:\ :ac=l\332m\300k\277j\331u\264t\303v\301w\302q\304x\263n\305`^Da\260f\370g\361~\371.^Y-^Xh\261i^U0\333y\363z\362:\ :tc=cons25w: -------- end ~/.termcap ------------- Note that the ac capability in cons25 should be a single (long) line. -- Carl Johnson ca...@peak.org _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
