I am new to emacs 22.1, and it is showing the text in echo area in a
green color. For example if I type C-x C-f, it shows "find file" in
green color. I want this text in windows default color. The main
window is working ok, after I turned off font-lock, by executing
(global-font-lock-mode nil).
Is there a variable I should set to accomplish this?
--TIA

`nil' means to _toggle_ Font-Lock mode (in Emacs<22 the effect is to
turn on Font-Lock). It's better to use (global-font-lock-mode 0).

There is a face `minibuffer-prompt' as well as a variable
`minibuffer-prompt-properties'. You can change any of these.
(`C-u C-x =' displays information about the face at the current
position.)

I have in my customisations section of ~/.emacs:
'(minibuffer-prompt ((t (:background "yellow" :foreground "dark
red" :weight bold))))
