If you are using X Windows, you can put commands like these in your .Xdefaults file: Emacs.Background: Black Emacs.Foreground: White You could put commands like these in your .emacs file: (set-background-color "Black") (set-foreground-color "White") (set-cursor-color "White") (set-mouse-color "White") But these commands apply to only the current frame. Commands that create additional frames would revert to the default colors. --Greg At 11:38 AM +0300 4/5/02, Antonis Matsakas wrote: >Hi there, >Can you tell me how can I set the background color in emacs?
