By the way: use xterm for mc, not konsole or gnome-terminal - although xterm in 11.4 is buggy, it captures alt-enter. You have to update it to a newer version.
1-Why?
No need to reach 2 if you can't get past 1 without ignoring it altogether.
2-Xterm no good here. I've never figured out how to configure it to use legible fonts, or a white background.
not tooo hard... xterm -bg white -fg black
So you say. Why does it speak of VT100? Didn't they use those with mainframes back in the '60's? Has anyone here under 40 or 50 ever even seen a VT100?
and "man xtermset" will give you similar options that are storable: excerpt: OPTIONS -store [<filename>] This option will save all the other command line options given to the filename. If filename is omitted then the options will be written to ~/.xtermsetrc.
-bg and -fg both available here
As is usual of man pages, absent are the examples without which I get nowhere. I'm not a programmer. I don't know what fn font-spec or -font font-spec mean. Besides, I can open man pages legibly already in Konsole, so, again, why not just use Konsole? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
