mutt prepares for using color, even if you don't ask.
(read color.c, e.g., ci_start_color).

white, black and default are colors (if the terminal description says it
can do colors, mutt is probably starting colors).

Revisiting Mutt, Debian, Ncurses, Eterm .....

2001-04-29 Thread Jason Helfman

I have Debian Sid.

Eterm
Ncurses
Mutt

I have no colors for my Eterm and it should be Transparent with the
option flags I am using. If I start a Eterm up and type mutt, it jumps
to a black index, however when editing, it is transparent. And that
would make sense, being in VI at that point.

Any ideas why I would be experiencing this?

.Eterm/themes/mutt
or check the system wide files. SuSE has mutt theme for
eterm, maybe debian does too.
