To clarify I loaded the .el file via .emacs and after a M-x color-theme it appended a menu to "options". It has left all the colours as specified last time by doing M-x color-theme, yet .emacs contains no reference to it any longer. Perhaps it had to be unloaded in a special way? I removed .emacs.d, .emacs & .emacs-places and tried this & the elisp for this has also been taken off the load path :? Also tried "emacs -q" & "emacs -no-site-file", but it still highlights as per color-theme settings. Chris
