Use rxvt. You can specify all sorts of colors with command line switches or X resources (even though you don't need a X server running, it will still try to read you .Xdefaults file.) Or, if you must use a Windows CMD.EXE shell, right click on the shortcut that launches the shell and there is a page where you can change font, colors, rows x cols, etc. Brian -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
