If I put this (and only this) in my .emacs: (set-face-background 'modeline "red") (set-face-background 'default "blue4") I get a modeline with the default color. After Emacs has already started, evaluating that first line again produces the expected result. Is this some corner case bug? -- ((lambda (x) (x x)) (lambda (x) (x x))) Eli Barzilay: http://www.barzilay.org/ Maze is Life!
