Andrew Graves thought I should update the blog, so here it is…
As you can see, I’ve now updated the blog to WordPress 2.0, and a new color scheme (well, it’s actually a ‘different’ theme). I’m using my own blog as a testing ground to see if WordPress 2.0 has any major problems. Baring any, we’ll be updating BJU Bloggers in the near future. If anyone has any suggestions, now is the time.

XTerm Colors
So, I’ve been trying to figure out recently how to change the default color scheme in an xterm window (background and text colors). This may seem like a trivial matter, but when you code at 2 in the morning, color matters to your eyes. For a few days, I actually switched to pterm (as it had the default color scheme I wanted), but it had issues interpreting some of the character values right with some programs (specifically, iptraf). So, here it is. In order to make changes to your color preferences in Xterm, you need to create a .Xresources file in your home directory (’touch ~/.Xresources’ should work). Next, open that file in your favorite text editor (mine is pico, but you may prefer vi, or even emacs). Now, add these two lines:
XTerm*Foreground:[your color of choice]
XTerm*Background:[your other color of choice]
Now, save that file, and issue this command:
xrdb ~/.Xresources
Now, you can restart your xterm window to have your new color settings. On a side note, my particular color scheme is ‘grey90′ for the foreground and ‘black’ for the background.
