There are 5 skins shipped with mc: darkfar - black background default - the old default: blue background double-lines - like default but with double lines. Couldn't get that to work featured - like double-lines gotar - black backround I found 2 skins googling: elite_commander - unreadable with black backround bluemoon - black background. I found no skins anywhere with my choice for years: white background. So it's back to the old blue default because it takes days of diddling to make up a skin.

I think if in: [core] _default_=gray; change to white [core] _default_=white; it should be white background. I don't have mc so I can't try, but it seems easy to modified. -- Bye, Goran Dobosevic Hrvatski: www.dobosevic.com English: www.dobosevic.com/en/ Registered Linux User #503414 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Hi Goran, I just posted a followup with my complaint on the mc user list: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/mc/2010-April/msg00024.html It's not that simple as I mention there: when you change that default option all the directory entries turn bright white and in mcedit the entries turn black on white with a blue background which looks ridiculous. The problem is that they changed a major function without fallback and without a spectrum of options. Too bad but it's waiting until skins get developed or pinning mc to prevent 4.7.0.1 from installing.
