Color 1E

From time to time you may want to work in command prompt but the
default background is so bad that you can strain your eyes especially if
you are an octogenarian!!! However, there is a very simple solution
which nobody seems to know it or if they knew it they have forgotten.
The technique was first implemented in the bad old days of DOS - at
least that is what I am told by some old people.

OK so in Windows 10 and I assume it also works in prior versions, you
need to go to the command prompt (type/run cmd or right-click open cmd
prompt - whatever) then just type something like this:

color 1e

You get something like this:

First number is the Background and second number is foreground. The
picture gives you all the available options/color codes.

Good luck and pass this message to your good friend SteveGG who is
completely mentally deranged.

Wow, that's pretty crude.
With Xfce4, I use this to set background colors, text colors, cursor
color.

The Appearance tab has options for solid background, transparent
background, or an image, and a slider to set transparency level.

You were also giving a good suck to Kevin Spacey's cock so there is no
surprise there.

What is amazing is that you are so stupid that you don't have self-pride
in your self and all you do is stealing somebody's nym and making
erroneous posts on public newsgroups and forums. You don't have the
ability to reinvent yourself and it is shocking considering education is
almost free these days in most civilised countries.

Were your parents stupid like you or are you a product of single parent
who was working as a street prostitute?

OK everybody, now we will change colors of the *Blue Screen Of Death* !!!
If you prefer a *Red Screen Of Death* with white text, or any other color
combination that is easier for you to see:

1. Open %SystemRoot%\SYSTEM.INI in Notepad.exe.

2. Locate the \[386enh\] section.

3. If the MessageBackColor= and MessageTextColor= entries are present,
change them. Otherwise, add them to the end of the section. To have a Red
screen with White text, use:

MessageBackColor=4
MessageTextColor=F

Using the following codes (case is important):

0 = black
1 = blue
2 = green
3 = cyan
4 = red
5 = magenta
6 = brown
7 = white
8 = gray
9 = bright blue
A = bright green
B = bright cyan
C = bright red
D = bright magenta
E = bright yellow
F = bright white

4. Save the changes to the %SystemRoot%\SYSTEM.INI file.

5. Shutdown and restart your computer!!! Now wait, here it comes!!!

You can just **** off yourself or suck Kevin Spacey's cock. He lives in
your area in California.
