	Done:
	http://www.seriss.com/rush/releases/patches-for-102.42a8/irush-102.43-pre-mac-colormap-theme.tar.gz

	Follow up with all questions to me directly via email, not the group.
	(let's save everyone some noise)

	1) To install, extract the tar file, which contains:

		irush    -- mac OSX binary
		.irushrc -- Sample .irushrc file containing colormap and theme commands

	2) Install the irush executable here, renaming out the old one first:
	   /usr/local/rush/Applications/irush.app/Contents/MacOS/irush
	   (Make sure it's chmod +x of course)

        3) Install the .irushrc file on the target machine (renaming out the old one first):
	   /usr/local/rush/etc/.irushrc
           When irush starts, it loads this file automatically.

        4) Try running irush; it should load normally, quit.

	5) Now you can play with the colors in the .irushrc file.
	   All the colormap commands are commented out.. there's one line
	   for all of the 256 colors in irush's colormap.

           If you want to e.g. change the color of irush's tty background
	   from white to gray, uncomment the 'colormap 255 255 255 255' line,
	   and change it to read:

		# colormap 255 255 255 255
		colormap 255 50 50 50		# makes tty window gray

	   You may also want to change the 'theme' line from 'theme Default'
	   to 'theme Plain+Gray' or 'theme Plain+Tan', so that the colors you
	   get are accurate. (The default theme on OSX is 'plastic', which
	   lightens all the colors by default, so setting the theme to Plain
	   will prevent this 'color lightening')

	   Other colormap entries can be changed similarly. If artists want
	   to change particular colors, they can try by experiment, or ask me
	   what the color index number is for specific parts of the irush interface.

	Once you've made changes to the .irushrc file, just start up irush,
	and it will use the colors/theme you set.
