You really want to go to the fancy color eterms and stuff docs and check.
<g>
Seriouslier now, standard xterm accepts the -bg and -fg switches for that,
and semistandard color-xterms know about ANSI escape codes. You can do
things like
/bin/echo -e "\033[33m" Things are looking yellow now.
but most any stray console code that comes after that will reset your
text color.
eterm (which I don't know) might have an option of changing the default
text color on an existing window. xterm can't do this (si erro me mone).
