Right now when I run my xterm -ls -rv I still get a blackbox window with a grey background and black characters. Normally when I ran -rv it would reverse the colors making it have a black background and white characters.

I made sure to check if my configurations were being used by adding another item to the menu list and it worked.

Does anyone have any theories or potential troubleshooting mechanisms to figure out what's going on?

Finally there was no problem at all. My style file was somehow changed to black background and I was using -rv thinking that it wasn't working.
