Hi folks,
To get similar colors as on the VGA console and other XWindow
pseudo terminals (Eterm, aterm, etc.), I would suggest to change
the colors in /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm-color as follows:
*VT100*color0: black
*VT100*color1: red3
*VT100*color2: green3
*VT100*color3: yellow3
*VT100*color4: blue3
*VT100*color5: magenta3
*VT100*color6: cyan3
*VT100*color7: grey90
*VT100*color8: grey30
*VT100*color9: red
*VT100*color10: green
*VT100*color11: yellow
*VT100*color12: blue
*VT100*color13: magenta
*VT100*color14: cyan
*VT100*color15: white
The consitent color settings would make it much easier to
design attractive screen menus for all kinds of color terminals,
e.g. in installation programs.
Of course I know that it is possible for every user to
change the color settings as he likes in his .Xresources.
But this would be not very user-friendly.
Just a suggestion. Regards
Harri

I like it and the upstream maintainer of XTerm likes it.
