https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D254013 Bug ID: 254013 Summary: sysutils/most: poor default colors unreadable on bright background terminal Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Keywords: easy, standards Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: ehaupt@FreeBSD.org Reporter: walter.von.entferndt@posteo.net Flags: maintainer-feedback?(ehaupt@FreeBSD.org) Assignee: ehaupt@FreeBSD.org Attachment #222979 maintainer-approval? Flags: Flags: maintainer-feedback? Created attachment 222979 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D222979&action= =3Dedit files/patch-colors.diff: adjust default colors to be readable on most reasonable backgrounds The default colors for overstrike & underline text are very hard to read on terminals with a bright background. The patch corrects these to be readable on both dark & bright backgrounds. = It changes brightgreen -> magenta & brightred -> blue in the source & config example files. Additionally I took the freedom to add a hint in the example files that it's better to set the background to 'default' instread of 'blac= k', since that works for both dark & bright background. With the colors change= d, sysutils/most is a near-perfect candidate to read manpages & as default PAG= ER, espc. for newbies & noobs, since it has a statusbar & _tells_ which keys to press. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
