Hi! *VT100*foreground: gray90 *VT100*background: black Beware that these might be changed next time you update Xorg. So as an alternative, you can create a file ~/.Xresources, and put these two lines in it. Probably you mean ~/.Xdefaults -- wall ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

how can I make xterm just like the console ? (colors, etc.)
Hello, I am used to using the console for things like bitchx, nethack, etc. Now I have started using Xorg in 5.4-RELEASE (with the ion window manager). I notice that the xterm program comes up with black text on a white background, and that colors in BitchX, etc., are not the same as they were in the console. Can someone tell me what configuration I need to make the colors (and as much other behavior as possible) in xterm identical to the normal FreeBSD console ? thanks. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

an easy way is to run xterm -ls -fg white -bg black man xterm to see what those options actually do ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
