I can't tell you which grey is most suitable but I can tell you how I go about choosing a colour. Install: x11/rgb Then: $ showrgb | less will give you the names of the 256 websafe colours and their rgb values. I usually check out the colours by: $ xterm -bg DarkSalmon etc. Alternatively, you can use css and set an html pages bg properties: <style type="text/css"> body{ background-color: rgb(233,150,122); } </style> & view it in your browser. -- Frank Contact info: http://www.shute.org.uk/misc/contact.html _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
