Hi Samu

mc is the Midnight Commander - a tool which I use frequently in a terminal. Actually a Linux without mc is no Linux ;)

(try sudo apt-get install mc)

And thanks so much for the colour codes, I'll try them.

I'm not sure what mc is, but I agree the default theme is not good
enough for active use. Luckily you can change the color scheme using the
dconf-editor.

Here's an example of a nice gnome-like theme with a touch of elementary
in it.

org.pantheon.terminal.settings.palette:
#303030:#e1321a:#6ab017:#ffc519:#165a9e:#ec2361:#2aa7e7:#d1d1d1:#5d5d5d:#ff4933:#74bd1e:#ffd526:#0071ff:#eb2a65:#4bb8fd:#a020f0

org.pantheon.terminal.settings.foreground:
#a9b6b8

Title:
  Terminal unusable with mc due to bad standard color scheme

Status in Pantheon Terminal:
  New

Bug description:
  Well, I had to use Gnome terminal until elementary's terminal has some
  sort of setup functionality (or profiles like Gnome terminal). At the
  moment the terminal is unusable due to the standard colors - this
  makes the blue color scheme of mc unreadable. And, believe it or not,
  mc is THE most used app here and I assume I'm not the only one.
