Re: [Nano-devel] CVS Syntax Highlighting Problems

[Richard Smith]

Yea, got it now. Having problems changing my bash terminal in OSX to 
get colour, but I'll play a little more and find the right setting.

I actually read the README, INSTALL, README.CVS, the documentation on 
the website, went through the existing mailing lists and couldn't find 
anything. In fact it took me some time to even find the faq included 
with the source after you mentioned it because it's called faq.html and 
kinda gets lost when all the other documentation, as you would expect, 
is plain text and has it's file name in all caps.

Thanks all.
