I acquired 21.2.1 as part of RH9. I've been using 20.7.1 under RH7.2 and had colours in LaTeX mode selected so as to give light foreground colours on a dark background. I have weak eyes, need a full screen window, and find the white background too dazzling. I'm not particularly worried which colours go with math, display, environments, etc, except that grey for comments seems sensible. Below is the personal part of my ~/.emacs file. I also have a lot in ~/.Xdefaults. All comments will be greatly appreciated! ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;personal from here on (setq-default latex-mode t) (setq-default transient-mark-mode t) (setq default-major-mode 'latex-mode) ; (add-hook 'latex-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock) ; (add-hook 'tex-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock) ; next line added 27-05-03, see p146 (setq european-calendar-style 't) ; next line added 01-08-03, see info file (setq cal-tex-diary t) ; next line added 01-08-03, see p265 (setq tex-dvi-print-command "dvips") ; next two lines added 13-4-01.
