I am accustomed to my little d having inverse video around it, and for
some reason I cannot get slashem to do that.

I have played with combinations of use_inverse and hilite_pet to no
avail.

The use_inverse does nothing, as far as I can tell.

hilite_pet either allows the little d to be bright, or dim.

I am thinking it has something to do with ansi.sys but it eludes my pea
brain.

Why is it that the same darn options on nethack produce an inverse
video pet, but not slashem? Oddly my Un*x version of slashem has no
such problem.

You did set it to PC graphics in the NETHACKOPTIONS or the "O" command? If
it's set to dec graphics the '.' for the floor appear as lower case "b"'s.

yes, well, the only complaint in rendering that I have is the inverse
video thing. All the walls, floors, etc. look just as they should.
