Subject: [PATCH] Set the attribute to LIGHTGRAY before clearing the screen.
This helps with the "darkgray" background issue when using xterm. Apparently
if the foreground attribute has the high intensity attribute set and a CRLF
or a clear-screen sequence is sent, the new (blank) lines (normally, black)
will have the high intensity *background* attribute set (or it just looks
that way). I don't understand why... yet.
