I'm using KDE 3.0 and it took the colors I use for the desktop--gray
background and white letters, which I use because I can go for long periods
of time before my eyes water. It doesn't in Gnome, just black letters on
white, which, for me, is like staring into a light after awhile.
If you load up Emacs at the command line you can set the colors like this:
emacs -fg green -bg black
-fg is foreground, -bg is background. -ms is the mouse color, if you want to
change that.
It's all in the man pages.
Hope this helps.
