Date: Tue, 3 Apr 2001 01:27:57 -0400 From: Philip Webb <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: lynx-dev listserv <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: lynx-dev revised patch: default colors HN has a good point & i hope the patch below will meet his approval and get into dev.21 , depending on other comment (incl TD's). BTW there is a small discrepancy between "SVr4 curses" & "ncurses": perhaps TD can sort that bit out. --- old/lynx.cfg Tue Feb 27 17:50:52 2001 +++ new/lynx.cfg Mon Apr 2 11:33:38 2001 @@ -2755,44 +2755,40 @@ .h1 Appearance .h2 COLOR -# COLORS (only available if compiled with SVr4 curses or slang) -# -# The line must be of the form: +# Colors are available only if you compiled with SVr4 curses or slang. +# Users can define their own choice of colors here with a line of the form: # # COLOR:Integer:Foreground:Background -.nf # -# The Integer value is interpreted as follows: +# where `Integer' is interpreted as follows: # 0 - normal - normal text # 1 - bold - hyperlinks, see also BOLD_* options above # 2 - reverse - statusline -# 3 - bold + reverse (not used) +# 3 - bold + reverse - not used # 4 - underline - text emphasis (EM, I, B tags etc.) # 5 - bold + underline - hyperlinks within text emphasis # 6 - reverse + underline - currently selected hyperlink # 7 - reverse + underline + bold - WHEREIS search hits # -# Each Foreground and Background value must be one of: -# black red green brown +# `Foreground' and `Background' must be one of: +# black red green brown default[*] # blue magenta cyan lightgray # gray brightred brightgreen yellow # brightblue brightmagenta brightcyan white -# -.fi -# or (if you have configured using --enable-default-colors with ncurses or -# slang), "default" may be used for foreground and background. -# -# Uncomment and change any of the compilation defaults. -# -#COLOR:0:black:white -#COLOR:1:blue:white -#COLOR:2:yellow:blue -#COLOR:3:green:white -#COLOR:4:magenta:white -#COLOR:5:blue:white -#COLOR:6:red:white -#COLOR:7:magenta:cyan - +# [*] `default' may be used only if you use ncurses or slang +# and configured with --enable-default-colors ; +# NB you may have to experiment to identify `default' for your terminal type. +# +# The default offering below was suggested by Laura Eaves +# as being especially helpful for users with poor vision: +COLOR:0:white:black +COLOR:1:yellow:black +COLOR:2:brightcyan:black +COLOR:3:brightblue:black +COLOR:4:green:black +COLOR:5:magenta:black +COLOR:6:white:blue +COLOR:7:white:red .h2 ASSUMED_COLOR # If built with a library that recognizes default colors, initializes it -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto ; To UNSUBSCRIBE: Send "unsubscribe lynx-dev" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
