Description Olaf Hering 2005-09-17 14:42:15 UTC

all these BOLD attributes in rc.status have to go. Our default xterms were
always (almost) white, reading system messages during boot or shutdown is almost
impossible, at least for me.

see attached screenshot. What does rcypbind want to tell me? I had to change the
rc.status first to see it...

Hmm ... next admin is using green or red as default background.
Sorry, boot messages have to have stay in bold colors.

IMHO the colors choosen for an xterm with white background
should be _all_ visible:

  XTerm*color0: black
  XTerm*color1: red2
  XTerm*color2: green3
  XTerm*color3: yellow3
  XTerm*color4: blue2
  XTerm*color5: magenta
  XTerm*color6: cyan3
  XTerm*color7: gray90
  XTerm*color8: gray30
  XTerm*color9: red2
  XTerm*color10: green3
  XTerm*color11: yellow3
  XTerm*color12: blue2
  XTerm*color13: magenta
  XTerm*color14: cyan3
  XTerm*color15: white
  XTerm*colorUL: yellow3
  XTerm*colorBD: gray30

Remark: Don't touch the colors in /etc/rc.status.
