   Can you paste the contents of your ctrl/attr.ini and text.ini files here so I   
   can see what you have?   
      
   Also, if you could run the following command, as sysop, from the Terminal   
   Server (default command shell works best):   
      
           ;eval console.color_list   
      
   and paste the output of that here, that'd be helpful as well.
