Log:
Change colors in the newt frontend to have a black background
if the bg environment variable is set to "dark". Some people
can hardly read on a white background (closes: #330418).
Does that mean that one should boot the installer with:
install bg=dark
If so, would it not be better for consistency to capitalize the parameter:
install BG=dark
Or even to use a bit more descriptive parameter like "BACKGROUND" or even
"FRONTEND_BACKGROUND"?
This issue had been raised on a French speaking mailing list about
accessibility, and as told by Christian, writing command line parameters
with non QWERTY keyboards is quite boring. Anyway this is a general
issue, I will replace bg by FRONTEND_BACKGROUND for now, but it would be
really great to have short aliases.
