This should be solved at the core: adjust the RGB colours associated with the ANSI/colour sequences in xterm. Does xterm support this? Surely it stores the RGB values somewhere, I just don't know if they're hard-coded. (I'm not an X guru). It's quite possible in programs like rxvt, PuTTY, and SecureCRT (Windows). -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
