Hi,
put this in your ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc
export GREP_COLOR=31

colors being:
foreground       background
30 black         40
31 red           41
32 green         42
33 yellow        43
34 blue          44
35 magenta       45
36 cyan          46
37 white         47

or even 40 through 47 to highlight the background colors

export GREP_COLOR=31,40

instead.

HTH ;)

p.s. sorry if this is the second post since I don't see the
first one.. sympa must be playing havoc with me again.
