Ah!
I'm not working with the best screen and, with black on gray, that's just looked - well it was unclear to me. 2 years ago I'd have probably remembered it, from the other system I've mentioned, but on the screen I'm using now (usually devoted to something else), it's hard to see. (I have to change terminal settings on most of my systems to use something like green on black that look like the old phosphor monitors so there's good contrast.)
Okay, I'll use that later today when I'm at over where I have that system.
(This is a temporary environment for it - I'm setting it up to send to a relative who has just moved out of his house, so this is something for him to do when he's stuck in his apartment at night, alone, without a wife or kids anymore. He has some game consoles, but has never had anything like RetroPie.)
Just wondering - is there a reason that notification is in something lower contrast like black on gray instead of something like red or green for the text? (I realize it's on a black screen, so you can't use black as a background.)
