   Hi.   
   I'm trying to figure out how I can change the prompts from green to another   
   colour, for example cyan or bright magenta.   
      
   I looked on this page and followed the example by setting up a text.ini file   
   and as an example, created this line:   
      
   SubLstHdr: "\1-\1cSub-boards of \1h%-60.60s \1n\1cMsgs"\"\r\n\r\n\1h"   
      
   However, when viewing the prompt, it still shows in green. I've done the   
   obvious like logging off, recycling, even restarting the SBBS daemon on the   
   linux server, but the colours don't change. So I am guessing I'm missing   
   something obvious. Would appreciate any help or guidance.   
      
   Thanks   
   Dave
