You mean you couldn't reproduce the same colors for the "mode line" as in my screenshot? > Any secrets? Those colors come from the following definition (copy/paste'd from somewhere -- not so readeable to me): --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- export LESS_TERMCAP_so=$'\E[38;5;016m\E[48;5;220m' # enter_standout_mode --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Though, _my_ problem is to get colors for all the other elements (what's bold, underlined, etc.).
