Colors theme in 4.6 — howto?

[Rob Centros]

Is there any easy way I can emulate the following ...

   ·   status_color bg_blue+white
   ·   help_color bg_blue+white
   ·   menu_color bg_blue+white
   ·   prompt_color bg_blue+white
   ·   msg_color bg_blue+white

into the new "Colors theme" settings? I just like white on black for the main screen and white on blue for the various menus and prompts.

I understand that this is done in the /usr/share/joe/colors directory, but I'm not sure how to change "help_color" (as one example) in these .jcf files.

Thanks for any pointers.

EDIT:

I think I figured it out. At least I'm close. In the default.jcf file I gave it the following settings ...

-selection blue/white
-menusel blue/white
-menu white/blue
-linum default dim
-curlinum blue/white
-status blue/white
-prompt blue/white

Not exactly the same, but really close to what I had. "menu" was the key (and also "prompt").

Rob, sorry I got here late. You mention that you're only close. Were there any other specifics you wanted to know?

(You probably found this already, but here's the manual section)
