I'm using xfce 4.0.5-1 and Fedora Core 2

I prefer to run xterm using black text on a white background which
works well for me except
when I call a "man page." Many words are accented in yellow which is
unreadable against a
white background. I usually avoid the problem by using "info" instead
of "man." But it seems
to me there ought to be a better way. How can I force the man pages to
use only black text?
I dealt with the color change by entering in the "command" window under
"Terminal" properties
"xfterm4 -bg white -fg black." That works as expected for everything
except man pages.
Any help appreciated ...
Thanks.

Bob,
edit your ~/.Xresourses and try to change colors for colorUL (maybe you
need to change colorBL,colorDB as well)
...
XTerm*colorUL: black
...
and then xrdb -merge .Xresources
Lorenzo
Thanks to Lorenzo and Jasper my problem is corrected.
I added the following lines to .Xresources:
xterm*colorULMode: on
xterm*colorBDMode: on
xterm*colorUL: magenta
xterm*colorBD: blue
and that creates a display that's easily read.
Thanks for the immediate responses.
