I'm not sure. I very rarely use colors myself and, as a result of this, have not researched this at all. I just happened to know that more(1) does this trick, because I regularly use it on Gentoo Linux installations to strip off the colors from the output of commands like emerge(1), which stupidly insist printing colorful output even if I connect over SSH and set my TERM to vt220. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
