*---------------------- * blrutcfg.doc *---------------------- * as of: * 11/07/96 * 11:25 pm *------------------------------- * The color configuration file * for the BLR Utilities * is named BLRUTCFG.FIL. * If it is present, then its * colors will be the colors * used by all the utilities. * If it is absent, then the * utilities will use their * preset colors. * * in this case, present means * in the same directory * as the utilities, * and that directory is current. *------------------------------- *------------------------------------------ BLRUTCFG.FIL'S structure is as follows : *------------------------------------------ *------------------------------------------------------------ border color ( 1 byte hex - 0b = lt cyan ) cr,lf box color ( 1 byte hex - 6f : brn bkgrnd, white forgrnd ) cr,lf screen color ( 1 byte hex - 2e : grn bkgrnd, yelo forgrnd ) cr,lf text color ( 10 byte escape string - esc[1;43;33m ) ( see note 6 ) ( brown bkgrnd, yelo frgrnd ) cr,lf *------------------------------------------------------------ NOTES : 1. the border colors can be 00 - 0f 2. the box colors can be 0 - 7 ( bkgrnd ), and 0 - f ( frgrnd ) ( the left nibble is the bkgrnd color ) ( the right nibble is the frgrnd color ) 3. the screen colors can be 0 - 7 ( bkgrnd ), and 0 - f ( frgrnd ) ( the left nibble is the bkgrnd color ) ( the right nibble is the frgrnd color ) 4. the text colors can be 40 - 47 ( bkgrnd ), and 30 - 37 ( frgrnd ) ( 1 = hi intensity which changes the frgrnd to light colors ) 5. the cr,lf ( Carriage Return, Line Feed ) pairs are put in so you can use a text editor which has the alt key facility to modify the colors 6. since version 42, these utilities no longer use ansi.sys escape sequences for text color generation so this field is not used, but it is kept for compatibility with pre-42 versions. *---------------------------------------------------------------------------- *-------------------------------------- * Color Chart * for Border, Bkgrnd, Frgrnd *-------------------------------------- Black = 00 Light Black = 08 Blue = 01 Light Blue = 09 Green = 02 Light Green = 10 a Cyan = 03 Light Cyan = 11 b Red = 04 Light Red = 12 c Magenta = 05 Light Magenta = 13 d Brown = 06 Light Brown = 14 e ( Yellow ) White = 07 Light White = 15 f *------------------------------------ * Ansi Escape Sequence Color Chart * for Text Bkgrnd, Frgrnd *------------------------------------ *--------------------------- * Bkgrnd Color Chart *--------------------------- Black = 40 Red = 41 Green = 42 Brown = 43 Blue = 44 Magenta = 45 Cyan = 46 White = 47 *--------------------------- * Frgrnd Color Chart *--------------------------- Black = 30 Red = 31 Green = 32 Brown = 33 Blue = 34 Magenta = 35 Cyan = 36 White = 37 *------------------------------
