Andrew, Joanne:
you don't have to patch it, just change the color palette for colors 4 
and 12..
then restart the program.... i guess its not the best way though, i 
think there
should be a way to customize those colors...

Peter:
yeh i think these are the colors that xirssi uses ....
i will submit updated patch, and i was thinking about this, but
the colors are very similar, how about you change the default color palette
for colors 4 and 5, make 4 a little brighter and 5 a little darker,
so that they can be distinguished a little easier..
