Disclaimer: there are no standard colors used in terminal emulation. ! ! The choice for color4 and color12 is a tradeoff between contrast, depending ! on whether they are used for text or backgrounds. Note that either color4 or ! color12 would be used for text, while only color4 would be used for a ! background. These are treated specially, since the luminosity of blue is ! only about half that of red/green, and is typically not accounted for in the ! RGB scheme. ! ! Blue text on a black background should be readable. ! Blue backgrounds should not be "too" bright. ! ! Originally color4/color12 were set to the names blue3/blue !*VT100*color4: blue3 !*VT100*color12: blue ! ! They are from rgb.txt respectively: ! 0 0 205 blue3 ! 0 0 255 blue ! However, blue3 is not readable on a black background. ! ! Another choice was from the Debian settings: !*VT100*color4: DodgerBlue1 !*VT100*color12: SteelBlue1 ! ! From rgb.txt: ! 30 144 255 DodgerBlue1 ! 99 184 255 SteelBlue1 ! ! Some users object to this choice because the background (color4) is brighter ! than they are accustomed. Others point out that the different weights for ! the red/green components make it appear to be not really blue. Finally, it ! provides poor contrast against color13 and color14. ! ! The current choice uses equal weights for red/green (effectively adding a ! gray to the result). It is brighter than the original choice, and provides ! more contrast between color12 and color13, color14 than SteelBlue1 did. ! Contrast of color4 against black is slightly improved over the original. ! ! Some refinement is certainly possible (you are welcome to try) -TD #if PLANES > 8 !
