FYI, this is what I get: xterm: red on yellow rxvt: red on yellow eterm: red on lightbraun gnome-terminal: red on lightbraun/orange So translation of symbolic colornames to RGB values is not consistent between terminals. > BTW, mc -C directory=yellow,red gives significantly better results. yellow is translated different if it is used as foreground color than if it is used as background color. mc -C directory=yellow,yellow has always a brighter tone as foreground color in the terminals I have installed. Just observations. I don't know how the terminals work internally, or how to change the behaviour.
