Description Olli Artemjev 2006-01-15 08:35:59 UTC
It'd be nice to see an option to set color scheme for mc, isn't it?
Here's a color map developed by a friend of mine (Peter V. Chernikoff).
Current mc version in SuSE doesn't 've [Colors] subsection, thus it could be simply added by appending the following:
--cut--
[Colors]
#base_color=normal=lightgray,black:marked=,black:directory=cyan,black:link=gray,black:device=,black:special=red,black:executable=yellow,black:viewunderline=,black:editor=yellow,black:editnormal=lightgray,black:viewnormal=white,black
#base_color=normal=green,black:marked=,black:directory=lightgray,black:link=gray,black:device=,black:special=red,black:executable=cyan,black:viewunderline=,black:editor=,black:editnormal=green,black
base_color=normal=green,black:marked=,black:directory=white,black:link=gray,black:device=,black:special=red,black:executable=green,black:viewunderline=,black:editor=yellow,black:editnormal=lightgray,black:viewnormal=white,black
--cut--
The 'base_color...' thing is a one string (either web form either my editor may broke this by adding new lines).

PS: The syntax is the same for years. =) I'm using this at least 3-5 years. )

I don't think that changing the default for all users unconditionally is a good idea. On the other hand, if it will be commented out in the config file, it won't get enough puplicity.
Maybe you could add this into Tips_and_Tricks section on opensuse.org.

Hmm.. what's exact url where should I post a link to this possible enhancement?

As about leaving that commented - that would be better than nothing. But as you wish - I just change that every time I configure mc. =) Other may even donno about that abilities.

BTW: why it has INVALID status, not CLOSED? Any real difference?
