The beryl negate feature is good for interactive viewing of
these insane color schemes (using both bright yellow and
dark blue in foreground means one or the other will be
impossible to read regardless of background color).

While beryl mitigates the problem for interactive viewing,
it still is a pain for scripting.  Here's an example from last
night's cron job:

echo "Syncing overlays..."
layman -S

produces email message containing:

Syncing overlays...
svn: Working copy '/usr/portage/local/layman/sunrise' locked
svn: run 'svn cleanup' to remove locks (type 'svn help cleanup' for details)
* Running command "/usr/bin/svn update 
"/usr/portage/local/layman/sunrise""...
* 
* Errors:
* ------
* 
* Failed to sync overlay "sunrise".
* Error was: Syncing overlay "sunrise" returned status 256!
* 


Have fun,
Roy
