Well, I wouldn't put it that way. I like it not because that's how text terminals worked; I like it because I'm using self-luminant displays, displays that give off light of their own (as opposed to reflective displays, which reflect ambient light rather than generating their own light). Text terminals also use - used, I guess I should say these days - self-luminant displays, so light-on-dark made sense for them just as much as it does for me now. > Unfortunately I'm pretty sure Netsurf doesn't offer any mechanism to > force HTML pages to change their colour scheme. Oh well. At least I don't need to struggle with it trying to find such a mechanism, then.

Well, of course, I could fetch the source and hack on that. I've been hesitant to try that, expecting that understanding it enough to make those changes would take longer than finding some other way to address the issue...though I'm having enough trouble finding a suitable browser for that system that I'm beginning to wonder if maybe I won't have to do something like that with _some_ browser. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mo...@rodents-montreal.org / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B _______________________________________________ netsurf-users mailing list -- netsurf-users@netsurf-browser.org To unsubscribe send an email to netsurf-users-le...@netsurf-browser.org
