  Hi,

Sorry for the shameless plug, but as you are speaking of lacking
documentation:  Where the heck is the perf config file documented, other
than source code?  Reading the parser to figure how the config file is
supposed to look like really isn't fun :(

I'm looking for a way to disable the colors in the perf report tui.  Or
configure them into something readable.  No, light green on light gray
which is used by default isn't readable.

thanks,
  Gerd
