Hello!

Below are the xterm colours I use with nethack. I spent a bit of time developing & testing them and decided to share... please give me some feedback. :)

- cut & paste the code to the end of your .Xresources file
- run 'xrdb .Xresources' (you may see override messages if your file already has any of these lines)
- reload xterm
- play nethack (with OPTIONS=use_darkgray in your rc file, if playing on NAO)
