I agree, my solution is to reverse the screen. Having a black background
with white writing is must more pleasant for the eye, than staring at
a white (light) background for an extended time.
I don't know what the best way to do this is, but I usually do it
while envoking sunview/suntools. Here is how I do it.
sun4: % sunview -n -f 255 255 255 -b 0 0 0
sun3: % suntools -n -i
The above examples are for a color sun4 and a black/white sun3.
I am not sure about any other combinations.
Hope this helps
