Alejandro that should give me white (text), but it gives me light-grey.

My mistake. I spoke from the top of my head, as you see in the code listing I sent yesterday, White is actually \e[01;37m. Barry Buchbinder's explanation is far clearer than anything I would be able to come up with. Hope that it gets you on your way.


Cheers
