If you are using rxvt (which maybe you should) then for the
documentation try "man rxvt"
rxvt -fg pink -bg yellow
works nicely for me ;-)

>>> Jeff <me@play.net> 11/01/02 07:25:28 >>> The default light grey on black background of the terminal window gives me a great deal of eye strain. I would like to change the background color, default color of text, and the colors of highlights, reverse video, etc.-- just as I can with the two telnet clients I'm currently using. I've searched the archives for this list and found some small amount of discussion about the topic. I'm running Win98, so setting the properties of cmd.exe are not available to me (I haven't tried out the port to Win9x of cmd.exe, yet). There's nothing in the bash man page to help me, and the other pages that were mentioned are not in my installation. The article that comes closest to my concern is located at <http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-12/msg00934.html>. In this article the author remarks "...IIRC you should read a description of the terminal. one example is the linux-manpage console_codes (section 4 I think)." Where is this document available? Would it provide the information I'm seeking? If not, what do I need to look for?
