Re: [Freedos-user] How to get colorized directory in a dosemu prompt?

2007-07-23 Thread Larry Alkoff
Problems solved:

The problem of getting colorized prompts and directory listings under 
4dos has been completely solved with nansi 4.0d.

Additionally, I now get black letters on a bright white background with 
nansi 4.0d using the patch below:

 I use 4dos a free command.com emulator which has many more functions 
 than command.com.

 It has the ability to display a directory listing in color, similar
 to what happen with --color=auto in an xterm.

 Can anyone help me to get color in an xdosemu terminal?
 
 If I remember correctly, you need to load ansi.sys in config.sys so
 4dos is able to use colors. Sorry if you already tried that.
 


Damyan thank you very much.  Problem solved.

I had been loading nansi.sys which comes with freedos in config.sys.  It 
was obviously doing something but no color.

Your email prompted me to dig up an old copy of ansi.sys and _that_ 
worked right off the bat!

I'm so happy to finally have color.

Gratefully,
Larry

4DOS don't need a nansi.sys. Just enter option tool - display - bright  
background and - display - Ansi - auto. Maybe you have to download  
latest 4DOS?
