#I'd like to set the [Telnet] screen colour to dark blue, the text to yellow. I
#can do this for a session without problems ('Color' from the 'Session'
#menu) but I can't seem to save these settings; display reverts to b/w
#the next time the application is run.
#
#The Config file contains:
#
#nfcolor="{0,0,0}" # normal, foreground (Mac II)
#nbcolor="{65535,65535,65535}" # normal, background (Mac II)
#bfcolor="{0,0,0}" # blink, foreground (Mac II)
#bbcolor="{65535,65535,65535}" # blink, background (Mac II)
#
#so it seems clear the display can be changed permanently.
#
#At last to the question - is there any way of recording my new colour
#settings in the format required by the Config. file? Do I have to set
#random values until one looks OK? (Surely not...?) My 256 colour blue is
#standard intensity-slider-at-the-top dark blue; same for the yellow.
Go to the Color Wheel in the control panel (if you are running sys 7.x,
go to Color, choose ...other from the popup menu). In the color wheel
change the color to look like your favourite blue. Note the numbers
on the left of the wheel (they change when selecting another color); change
the numbers in the Telent config file accordingly. Presto...
