I finally got 1.3.25 built on a FreeBSD 4.4 box. I had previously been running 1.3.22.
After installing from the port, colors are no longer working properly using Putty. By not working I mean that it seems the foreground and background colors are reversed in some cases. Text that was previously green on a default background is now black on a green background. The default background does not seem to "show through". In other cases, the text color is completely different from those defined in my .muttrc. No other changes were made that I'm aware of, so I started poking around in the makefile. I noticed that during the install that slang was also installed, which I'd not seen before. The Makefile says... # In general you can choose between using the SLANG port (which is really # recommended and is now the default) and ncurses (WITH_MUTT_NCURSES). If you # don't want to use SLANG define WITHOUT_MUTT_SLANG. Now, before I go around messing with trying to go back to using ncurses, I'd like to know if anyone knows if there's a way to fix the color issue while still using slang, since that seems to now be "recommended". I know nothing about curses or S-LANG btw, so I'm pretty much flying blind here. -- Jack Baty Fusionary Media - http://www.fusionary.com/
