Are > backgrounds, etc supported? I think I have a local copy that supports backgrounds. I was kinda waiting that new menu system would take over this. But I think new plan would be to do several iterations on it... so I might commit improved gfxterm that supports background (and is a bit faster, though needs more memory). Next iteration would be to replace this functionality with improved menu/themes. That version probably will not be backwards compatible with first iteration, but I think we can live with that.
