Package: xterm
Version: 4.2.1-4

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
