I'm using xfce 4.0.5-1 and Fedora Core 2 [kernel 2.6.8-1.521].
I prefer to run xterm using black text on a white background which works
well for me except
when I call a "man page." Many words are accented in yellow which is
unreadable against a
white background. I usually avoid the problem by using "info" instead of
"man." But it seems
to me there ought to be a better way. How can I force the man pages to
use only black text?
I dealt with the color change by entering in the "command" window under
"Terminal" properties
"xfterm4 -bg white -fg black." That works as expected for everything
except man pages.
Any help appreciated ...
Thanks.
