Package: xterm
Version: 261-1
Severity: normal
The reverseVideo X resource and the +rv/-rv command line options affect the
reverse video feature in strange ways.
It seems to get inverted rather than set, though even that doesn't explain why
there is a mark for the menu option if the reverseVideo resource is true and no
CLI option is given, but no mark in all other cases.
This is what happens:
resource CLI menu result
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
false Mark white bg, black fg (false)
false No mark (default) black bg, white fg (true)
false +rv Mark white bg, black fg (false)
false +rv No mark (default) black bg, white fg (true)
false -rv Mark black bg, white fg (true)
false -rv No mark (default) white bg, black fg (false)
true Mark (default) black bg, white fg (true)
true No mark white bg, black fg (false)
true +rv Mark white bg, black fg (false)
true +rv No mark (default) black bg, white fg (true)
true -rv Mark black bg, white fg (true)
true -rv No mark (default) white bg, black fg (false)
This is what I would have expected:
resource CLI menu result
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
false Mark black bg, white fg (true)
false No mark (default) white bg, black fg (false)
false +rv Mark black bg, white fg (true)
false +rv No mark (default) white bg, black fg (false)
false -rv Mark (default) black bg, white fg (true)
false -rv No mark white bg, black fg (false)
true Mark (default) black bg, white fg (true)
true No mark white bg, black fg (false)
true +rv Mark black bg, white fg (true)
true +rv No mark (default) white bg, black fg (false)
true -rv Mark (default) black bg, white fg (true)
true -rv No mark white bg, black fg (false)
In words:
1. A mark in the menu should always correspond with reversed video (i.e. black
background, white foreground).
2. The reverseVideo resource should set the default value for the menu option.
3. The -rv/+rv CLI options if given should set the default value for the menu
option, overriding the reverseVideo resource.
