It keeps standard blue backgroud for editing, because syntax colors are optimized for blue. I use old mc version 4.5.51, SSH, and red cursor. I should create a screen-shot sometimes... Following you need to enter (as one line!) into [Colors] section of your .mc/ini file. ====================== [Colors] base_color=normal=black,white:selected=black,cyan:marked=black,yellow:markselect =black,cyan: menu=black,cyan:menuhot=red,cyan:menusel=white,red:menuhotsel=white,red: dnormal=black,cyan:dfocus=white,blue:dhotnormal=red,cyan:dhotfocus=yellow,blue: input=black,white:reverse=black,cyan: executable=red,white:directory=blue,white:link=green,white:device=red,:special=c yan,:core=green,: helpnormal=,cyan:helplink=red,white:helpslink=white,red ======================== Tip: If editing in mc, you need to switch Options >> Configuration >> Auto save setup OFF, otherwise when exiting to re-read ini file, your changes will be lost. You can find this color scheme and short (one-page) cheat-sheet of MC commands (and more) at: http://twiki.med.yale.edu/twiki/bin/view/Tools/MidnightCommanderIntro > > And don't ask why I dislike blue.

Many fonts look better as dark on light paper... > > thanks You are welcome! > Andreas -- Peter Masiar, [EMAIL PROTECTED], (203) 764-8131 I am not a lawyer. My ideas are NOT binding for University.
