Would there be better alternative to currently used "cyan"? Like using "dark green"? I don't have any trouble with "cyan" on a black (i.e. dark) background. Also, "dark blue" on a white background works fine. On the other hand, "dark green" fails me for a dark background. My normal background is "DodgerBlue4"; "cyan" works fine on it, too. Perhaps our color renditions are different? -- Robert J. Chassell GnuPG Key ID: 004B4AC8 bob@rattlesnake.com bob@gnu.org http://www.rattlesnake.com http://www.teak.cc
