XTerm Colors
I usually like to use xterm (fast, always available, etc.) but one
issue that's pretty persistent is that the colors, with blue in
particular, are too dark. When I google on this, I'm able to find
instructions on how to change *what* color is being used but not how
to modify what that color is. As an example of what's easy to find:
XTerm*Background: green
This will do as expected and set the background of the XTerm to green,
but it won't help you at all to define what shade that green is. The
setting that I really want is this:
XTerm*color4: blue
Any of the 8 colors (color0 through color7) can be changed like this,
but usually the offender is the above. I think the following looks
pretty good:
XTerm*color4: CornflowerBlue
Here's a great listing of the available colors:
