Hello everyone,
How would I change some of the syntax highlighting colors in Emacs? For example,
the argument of a printf statement in a C source file is highlighted in bright
pink. Since bright pink on a white background has very little contrast, I would
like to change the highlighting to something darker. I couldn't find where these
options were located in the Customize Emacs menu. Does anyone know how to change
these colors?
Thanks,
Bob Johnson

You want to change the font-lock-string face. Note that this change
is a general one: it will affect _all_ strings Emacs fontifies in
_any_ language, not only in C.
