Hopefully someone can answer this for me. I'm trying to add/change colors to my 'list-colors-display'. Ultimately, I want to get rid of the color 'cyan', and replace it with something else, as 'cyan' is next to impossible to read against a white background. Specifically it is for color coding 'C'. All other colors in my 'list-colors-display' are used to highlight some part of the 'C' code, so if I simply change the face where cyan is used ('C' keywords) to another defined color, I will be duplicated its use with something else. I therefore want to add a color that will ultimately show up when I do a 'list-colors-display'. It appears that when I go into a M-x customize ... I can only change colors to something that is defined under 'list-colors-display'. Can someone point me to how I can add color definitions to my emacs.
