(It's okay to change the background color.) I did a recent installation of Ubuntu 14.04. The new emacs version changes = the color of the text in a region to white to accompany the background colo= r change. I don't like this behavior and would like to revert to the previo= us behavior, which was to change the background color only and leave the te= xt color alone. The jpg image at https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4BAQmmnJQ4HU1hCUUtGb3ZHd= TQ shows what I mean much better than I can describe it. The emacs session = on the left is the old behavior (where the colors of "selected" text remain= unchanged). The emacs window on the right (partially hidden) shows that th= e the selected text has been changed to white. That's what I don't like and= would like to disable. Does anyone know how to do that? Thanks.
