A friend spent quite some time on doing a color customization which I am quite happy with (though if anyone has tips for other color schemes that they think would work better, feel free to comment). The problem is that when I create a new window with C-x-5-2, the background color for some reason changes from black to white, making a lot of the text almost unreadable. This happens both on my iBook and on a Unix workstation. Does somebody have any idea why this happens, and how I could fix it? If this is too specific a question for this list, please let me know. (Although this question is important to me, I am not sure if I would call it "seriously important to many people", as the forum rules seem to demand.) I include the .emacs-file below for reference (and in case anybody might want to use it). regards, Humbro ____________________________________________________________ (set-foreground-color "DarkGoldenrod1") (set-background-color "black") (set-cursor-color "aquamarine1") (set-mouse-color "RosyBrown1") (custom-set-variables ;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom -- don't edit or cut/ paste it! ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance. ) (custom-set-faces ;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom -- don't edit or cut/paste it! ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
