Hi All,

     I am using XFce (xfce-4.1.99.1-rpm-rh9.tar.bz2) as
my GUI. I like to use the following options in my xterms:

             xfterm4 -gb blue -bg white

Sometime I also use "darkgreen", "darkred" and "black" for my
foreground -- it helps me tell windows apart.

     Problem: manual pages (man xxx) like to show some
of the highlighted lettering in white. "minicom" does the
same thing on me. :'(

     As white on white is invisible (-gb white -bg white),
does anyone know of a way to keep "man", "minicom" and
everyone else from displaying white letters when I have
a white background?

Many thanks,
--Tony
