Hi, I'm thinking of messing with the syscons ioctl handler to allow setting of color values - all EGA- and VGA-compatible video controllers allow this. The idea is to later define my termcap(5) entry to let ncurses deal with color setting. termcap(5) lists the 'cc' - 'can change color' and 'Ic' - 'initialize color' capabilities. Setting the boolean 'cc' is easy, 'Ic' however presents a bit of a problem to me - does anyone know what it is set to on any other terms so I can keep a bit of compatibility here, or do I just randomly pick an esc sequence, and lead on a happy existence until someone else defines this same esc sequence to do something else? :) G'luck, Peter -- This sentence was in the past tense.
