I tried it too and, though a bit shocking at first, and definitely not the most
aesthetical color, I think you're right that it _is_ easier on the eyes (than
white on black). I wonder if this issue has been studied medically or
physiologically -- I'll bet it has. When you're pushing sixty like me, the eyes
definitely take a pretty hard hit.

I don't think that many users can just load your DFL file without it beeping like a
bastard at them (non-existent drive specs, printer files, etc); to give cyan a
whirl, all you really need to do is change

MD NM=whatever
 to
MD NM=3
