string color

[Konstantin L Kouptsov]

Hello,

I am a little disappointed with the default colors in my emacs settings.
I have an Emacs version 20.7. When I open a new emacs window, it is 
colored dark green by default (which is fine). When start typing new 
text, the text is shown as black on the white background. When I turn 
the font-lock mode on, some of the keywords (c or latex) are colored in 
a number of colors with the correct (dark green) background (which is 
fine also), but the regular text remains black on white background. I 
was trying to change either its color or the background with no results.

I expect the regular text to have the same background color as the rest 
of the buffer. Probably there is something missing in the font-lock.el 
or similar files.

What to do?

Konstantin.
