The x3270 bright color scheme on …/wiki/ColorScheme_resource … isn't #41

Closed swhobbit closed 2 years ago

The provide x3270 color scheme bright isn't: It's a clone of the default 3279 scheme. The colors needing the most help are green and blue, which are tweaked below:

x3270.colorScheme.bright: \
       black DodgerBlue red hotpink \
       limegreen turquoise yellow white \
       gray10 blue3 orange purple \
       paleGreen paleTurquoise2 grey white \

It's actually 'default' that was cloned from 'bright'.

I have removed 'bright' from the menu, though the underlying resource is still there for folks who depend on it.

whoops

A major point (which I did note but failed to highlight) was that the default green and blue are too dark, especially in (thin) default font. If you're going to delete the bright color scheme, consider the colors DodgerBlue and limegreen on the default scheme.

FYI: The LCM+L VM/SP machine now the PALETTE EXEC which I use to display all the colors.

I have applied your color suggestions to the default color scheme. (I've got a cool generated screen here with various color and attribute options for testing.)
