How do you customize colors in xterm. I read the man page and tried 
rgb:FF/FF/BA but it does not work the way I want.

Could you give me a line example for xterm ( and while I am at it for 
Eterm and Konsole)

Thanks.

While trying to render I got this message:

/bin/sh: /home/fabien/povray-3.5/povray_athlon: Datei oder Verzeichnis

Exception in Tkinter callback

-> /home/fabien/povray-3.5/povray_athlon
Maybe no good default povray binary :-)

  I don't know if the colors can be customized (without having to compile
xterm), but at least they can be configured with command-line parameters
with aterm, which is a rather good rxvt clone. Worth trying.

On IRIX 6.5 I use this command: xterm -font screen15 -back black -sl 200
which allows you to specify the background colour. I thin you can use the -fg
color or -cr color flags to change the color of the text.

Hope this helps.

Actually the -cr flag changes the colour of the cursor only. The -fg flag
changes the colour of the text as well.

I meant that I want different colors than those offered by the terminal
: black, white, yellow...
The best would be to be able to give colors as in POV rgb <0.7,0.7,0.4>
.

You have to tell Pyvon where is the executable.
Use 'Options / povray location'

This path is from the pyvon.ini file taken from my hard drive.
You have to set your path to the POV location

I definitely have to save that pyvon.ini into ~home, not into the directory
where Pyvon is extracted.
For those who already have pyvon.ini, I advise to back it up and restore it
after the extraction of the tgz archive.

I must have disabled the option that checks whether the executable path found
in pyvon.ini exists on the hard drive.
I'll see to that.

Thanks for the comment

My goal is to use a console for which I am 100% sure that it will be found on
any computer.

I would use Eterm or Konsole ( KDE console), but I don't think these are widely
used bu *nix users.
