Both override what is in /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm-color. The first option is best for me. > And what is the difference between the resources > color1 and color? First read about the -p option in dircolors(1). There are 8 available colours (30-37) for a terminal outside X. In an xterm color0, color1 etc correspond to 30, 31 etc. colors 8-15 corresond to the bold variants of these colors. Please see xterm(1) and /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm-color. For example, DIR is 01;34. This corresponds to color12. I'd suggest we are now going well beyond your original (solved) problem. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
