Displaying Colors

[LESLIE319@xxxxxxxx]

Nathan,

Somebody asked about changing their color displays last week.
Forget who it was. Anyhow, as I recall they wanted advice on
changing their default display colors. The default they want is
DF DD=nn, where nn is any color code they want to use.

BTW: The menu system will change default colors only if you
don't have a separate display file loaded. If you load
settings.dfl first, and then, say, color.dsp, the defaults in
color.dsp override the defaults in settings.dfl. Therefore, IMO,
the best thing to do is blow off the settings.dfl altogether and
put all your color defaults directly into settings.dfl.
