Definitely the latter: change. I use those ten colors constantly.
But I get :
# dnf install 'dnf command(color_list_available_install)'

It could be a DNF plugin command, try: "dnf install 'dnf-
command(color_list_available_install)'"
I've chewed and chewed on the above and several variant
interpretations of it -- and I'm lost.
Maybe I should say that my expressions like "soft blue" are my
descriptions of what I actually do from Mate-terminal --> Edit -->
Profiles then click on Default, then Edit, then Colors, then Custom, then
one of the colors. Say I start with Text color. Then I click on a colored
box, then on +. That gives me a window with a slider, which I can drag
vertically to get, say in two dimensions till it looks purple. Then I get
a purple window with two white lines; I drag the intersection in two
dimensions till the little window in that box looks the way I want. Then
I click Select, and the text on my open tab turns the color I had moved
the cursor to.
I repeat the above for background, then, over and over, for each
of the other six profiles.
Am I making sense yet?
