Hi, I just wanted to ask a simple question. Would command line interfaces look
better on laptops and other LCD screens if they are using black text on white
backgrounds, rather than the usual reverse (white text on black, as MS-DOS
normally had it)? I'm aware that white text on blue was popular, but I thought
that with LCD it looked better to reverse it. I guess it would make DOS look
kind of like a word processor in a GUI environment, though. With CRT screens it
was tiresome to look at so much light being projected out of the screen at
once, and I noticed that FreeDOS is being sold/packaged with new laptops. LCDs
are of course very good these days, so you display dark images, etc., pretty
well without a hitch, so maybe it doesn't really matter. I thought it'd be neat
though to see a new version of "DOS," some kind of MS-DOS or freeDOS or
whatever it is I'm writing to here, and have the colors be black text on white,
but maybe you guys already have color options in the configuration.
