A generalized reply to all of your questions, in no particular order. I thank all of you for your responses. --------------- General problems with ls... This really isn't a major problem for me. When I run into a situation with the colors I just use the --color=no option. I've also added, in the .vimrc file, the line "colorscheme koehler". --------------- My vision is fine, other than needing bifocals now. It used to be 20/10 and as far as I know nobody in my family is/was colorblind. My father was a pilot during WWII and the FAA didn't blink when I asked for a medical to get my private pilots license. --------------- Carlos E. R. take a photo of your display, with camera and tripod (not a screenshot by the desktop). I took the pdf and opened it with xv, a nice graphics program I started using back in the 90's (before linux came out). There's an option to fiddle with things and then save as a jpg. I have a display here with two hdmi inputs, and one of them is named "hdmi/pc". This is an option that I'll look into, the back of the display is difficult to get to without removing everything from the desk. --------------- Robert Webb For distinguishing either light colors or dark colors, changing the gamma helps. Indeed it did. But, unfortunately, it also made videos to dark to watch. --------------- Dave Howorth
