I understand your point of view, but I don't like the idea of having different behaviour based in if the background color is the default or not (what happen if you have the same problem with your default background?), but I think maybe a patch with a new option to st could be good. What opinion do you have guys? Regards, -- Roberto E. Vargas Caballero
