On my machine, gray60 is RGB:9999/9999/9999
I get a shadow of RGB:4ccc/4ccc/4ccc
and a hilite of RGB:d709/d709/d709
I think these numbers are similar to what the old calculation
would produce.
When I use the exact command:
MenuStyle maroon grey60 grey40 9x15 fvwm
The reliefs around the arrows look OK to me.
I think I need more hints about how a greyscale terminal works.
