I use a colorized termcap with less, but it also works with
/usr/bin/more. It depends on what type of terminal you are using it
on. I have it for xterm and rxvt (which is what I use). This works for
manpages, but you can also colorize your prompt.
It is short, so my ~/.termcap is below:

All that does is set bold to yellow, standout to cyan, and underline to
green. I use white on black, so if you use something else you will
probably have to adjust the colors. I haven't tried 9.0, but this works
on 8.1-RELEASE and 8.2-RELEASE. You can decide for yourself if that
does what you want.
