Hi, Christian. "Eterm -f red -P daemon1.xpm" is readable for me (the --trans option makes it crash), and red is a traditional color for denizens of the underworld. If only white or black text will do, you might use an image-processing program such as gimp or xv, or use the -brighten and -gamma options to xloadimage, to reduce the contrast of the image, brighten, or darken it. -- Trevor Johnson http://jpj.net/~trevor/gpgkey.txt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
