Re: PS1 and color of cygwin screen


I mean that I am running light grey characters on a black background (The
ms-dos prompt default in win98), and it is too hard on the eyes, with not
enough contrast.  I want to use a white background with black letters.

I'll look in the man page for bash again, I must have missed it before.

Thanks for the info!

Dave
