modifieing the .fwmrc

i have a prob with the .fwmrc - file.

i wanted to add an entry to the 'applications'-menu. so i modified the menu in the .twmrc . i added a function to the menu, that opened an xterm.

it looks like this:

!"xterm&"

but that's not all i want. i also want to modifie the bg and the fg - colors. The code for that would be

!"xterm -fg "green" -bg "black"&"

the prob is, that i used " before the end of the command. so the whole menu doesn't work anymore.

now i want to know, how i can modifie the color AND have a working menu Smilie

NAME
mitem_value - set and get menu item values SYNOPSIS
#include <menu.h> int set_item_value(ITEM *item, bool value); bool item_value(const ITEM *item); DESCRIPTION
If you turn off the menu option O_ONEVALUE (e.g., with set_menu_opts or menu_opts_off; see menu_opts(3X)), the menu becomes multi-valued; that is, more than one item may simultaneously be selected. In a multi_valued menu, you can used set_item_value to select the given menu item (second argument TRUE) or deselect it (second argument FALSE). RETURN VALUE
The function set_item_value returns one of the following: E_OK The routine succeeded. E_SYSTEM_ERROR System error occurred (see errno). E_REQUEST_DENIED The menu driver could not process the request. SEE ALSO
curses(3X), menu(3X). NOTES
The header file <menu.h> automatically includes the header file <curses.h>. PORTABILITY
These routines emulate the System V menu library. They were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions. AUTHORS
