Does not seem to work. I put as the last statement into my .emacs:
(when (= (user-uid) 0)
(set-foreground-color "#a9eadf"))
The messages while starting are in the asked color, but after being
started the text is not.
So I changed it to:
(when (= (user-uid) 0)
(run-with-timer 2 nil
'(lambda () (set-foreground-color "#a9eadf"))))
Now the messages are not, but the text (very soon) after being started
is.
And now I put it on a more sensible place. ;-}
