Re: strange error in mutt

Strange, Mine works fine with "default" as a background color.  Are you
using a precompiled binary or did you compile it yourself?  What version?

I'm using 1.0pre1i from a debian *.deb (precompiled) with the following
options:

System: Linux 2.2.12 [using slang 10202]
Compile options:
-DOMAIN
-HOMESPOOL  +USE_SETGID  +USE_DOTLOCK  +USE_FCNTL  -USE_FLOCK
+USE_IMAP  +USE_POP  +HAVE_REGCOMP  -USE_GNU_REGEX  +HAVE_COLOR
+HAVE_PGP5  +HAVE_PGP2  +HAVE_GPG  -BUFFY_SIZE 
-EXACT_ADDRESS  +ENABLE_NLS

 in my .muttrc file there is some like that use default color as:
 color quoted9cyan   default
 
 Running mutt i get the following error for every line containing the default col
 or:
 
 Error in /home/marco/.muttrc, line 292: default: no such color
 WHY?
 The documentation mentions that the color default is available . but why not
  on my system (linux i386)
 
 Thanks for replying

 Yes, I'm new to mutt :-)

Pixmap background in an xterm and mutt

1999-08-22 Thread Matthew Cordes 

Hello all.  Mutt seems to draw its own background (black).  How might I
let it simply write on top of the pixmap my terminal normally uses.  I've
already tried removing all color entries from my muttrc and the
background is still back.  If this is not possible what color attribute
do i use to change the background to white?

Thanks

 Use 'default' for the background color to get a transparent background.
 
  ... I think the manual said use the default
  object for a transparent colour.  My version (compiled against SLang)
  doesn't seem to recognize that keyword at all.
 
 Acc. to the manual:
 "If Mutt is linked against the S-Lang library, you also need to set the
 COLORFGBG environment variable to the default colors of your terminal for
 this to work; for example (for Bourne-like shells):
 
   set COLORFGBG="green;black"
   export COLORFGBG
 "

 Yes, Jeremy, I realize that, and it's in place.  I have (I use tcsh):
  setenv COLORFGBG "brightyellow;blue"
 
 The problem is, that strictly affects the top menu bar.  The way I read the
 original post, he seemed to want the entire screen white.  COLORFGBG does
 not accomplish that task, even if I remove "color normal white black"...the
 body of my email is still white on black.
 
 So far as I can tell, it strictly applies to the top menu bar, which is why
 I didn't list that as a solution.  I was simply saying I couldn't vouch for
 "default"'s behaviour, since it isn't recognized if you link with SLang.
 
 If the COLORFGBG can do more than what it is, I'd like to know how.  :)

Does anyone know if support for PGP6.5.1 has as of yet been implimented in mutt?  If 
not how difficult would it be to add support?
