I'm working with a vt340 terminal and I'm trying to get a terminfo entry together for it for use with the color options in curses. (ATT V3.2) I've been able to come up with parts of it, but I think I've hit a dead-end. Is it possible to place a character somewhere on the screen in such a way that the character itself has it's own background and foreground color? (ie, a blue screen with a red "X", with a green background for just the red "X")? As I was saying, I'm using this in conjuction with color curses, but any information about this would be greatly appreciated. Steve uunet!modcomp!srp
