Subject: gfxterm distinction between fg color and cursor color X-BeenThere: grub-devel@gnu.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Reply-To: The development of GRUB 2 List-Id: The development of GRUB 2 List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 24 Jul 2008 16:19:51 -0000 Why does gfxterm make a distinction between foreground color and cursor color? Do we really want this? Currently, the variable-based hooks for changing colors have no effect in cursor color because of this. How about supressing separate handling of cursor color, and simply use the foreground color to draw it? Or maybe it'd be better to have setcolor() set cursor color implicitly? -- Robert Millan I know my rights; I want my phone call! What good is a phone call… if you are unable to speak? (as seen on /.)
