You are not going to fix every program that uses colors, do you? :-) You need to set the correct black&white terminal type for black&white hardware, that's all. You are not expecting the correct behavior if you set the wrong terminal type, right? If you set TERM=at386 for syscons(4) hardware, function keys will not work, and you will develop the patch to support cons25r keystorkes for grdc(8)? :-) Cheers, -- Ruslan Ermilov Oracle Developer/DBA, ru@sunbay.com Sunbay Software AG, ru@FreeBSD.org FreeBSD committer, +380.652.512.251 Simferopol, Ukraine http://www.FreeBSD.org The Power To Serve http://www.oracle.com Enabling The Information Age To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
