10.0;inv (invert_color) *DM*, revision 1.0, 87/12/23
inv (invert_color)  set window color
usage:  inv [-on | -off]



DESCRIPTION
     The inv command sets the color of all windows on monochrome displays.
     Note that these are window backgrounds only; bgc (background_color)
     controls the display background.

     The window color is on, by default, at login.

OPTIONS
     If you do not specify an option, inv toggles the current mode.

     -on       Display black characters on a white or green background,
               depending on display type.

     -off      Display white or green characters on a black background,
               depending on display type.

NOTE
     inv has meaning only for monochromatic displays.  It has no effect on
     nodes with color displays. See the DM command mono for information about
     window color on color displays.

     prompt:
