I'm pretty sure you can get 'xcolors' for HP-UX from one of the HP-UX Software and Porting Archive Center mirrors near you. The Canadian mirror site is: http://hpux.ee.ualberta.ca . Another US mirror site is http://hpux.cae.wisc.edu .

The 'xcolors' utility will even let you see what your foreground and background color selections would look like together without actually having to change settings and run hpterm.

Bah! GUI tools just to simulate the -fg and -bg flags to hpterm?

But it's GREAT to SEE all those colors AND the names they're called... right there before your eyes! =)
