I just installed NetBSD 1.2.1 on my 8MB Mac IIci. Monitor is a Radius
Pivot (in portrait) driven by internal video.

I've been flipping through the man pages, and sometimes if I quit
(typing 'q' at the end of a page in less) the prompt gives me white text
on a black background. 'man fsck' does this consistently. The rest of
the screen is still white -- only the prompt (and the next prompt, ad
shutdown) inverts.

Underlining seems a bit wrong too, as there are lots of instances where
underlines extend from their proper positions in the body of the
indented man page text to the left edge of the screen. Functional but
ugly... have either of these things happened to other folks?

While I'm on the subject, how can I set things so that I *always* have
white text on a black background? Barring the aforementioned inversion
of the prompt, of course. ;)
