Using the properties available for the Cygwin Bash Shell, I've changed the 
colors to use a light background (204,255,204) and dark foreground (0,0,0) 
and reversed the colors for the popup choices.  When I do a man page, 
e.g., man man, I get other colors that are hard to read, e.g., white on 
the light green background.  How can I control what colors are used when 
highlighted text, etc. is displayed?
