Currently coloured text output isn't very readable in GNOME Terminal
or xterm with a dark background:

- These terminals don't set $COLORFGBG, so we end up using the
  light-background palette.

- The standard (dark) blue is also too close to black in their default
  dark palettes.

Ben.

Ben Hutchings (2):
  color: Assume background is dark if unknown
  color: Do not use dark blue in dark-background palette
