I am pleased by the quality of your blog both visually and textually. it was because of vim's "set t_ut=' issue that I found your blog and I am happy that I did.
I have a question though: in the screenshot you put for the "man page", the coloring is different from mine. some texts (topics) are bold and orange-y. the flags are green, ... I wonder how you achieved that. attached you will find my xterm's screenshot.

Cool, I'm glad you like the visual design: it's a rudimentary approximation of old glass teletypes that could only display a maximum of 24 lines (at most 80 characters long) of plain text (imbued with a nonlinear phosphor glow) on the screen at a given time.

To activate coloring for bold and underlined text, you need to supply these additional directives in your XTerm configuration:

XTerm*vt100.boldColors : False
XTerm*vt100.colorBDMode : True
XTerm*vt100.colorULMode : True
XTerm*vt100.colorRVMode : False
XTerm*vt100.veryBoldColors : 6

I have updated the snippet in this article to include these directives accordingly. Thanks for your feedback.

Thank you Suraj. Both for the explanation on the style and the solution to my issue. Now, it works just like yours. I'm gonna read more topics from your blog, it is a real gem.
