Using X, I have a ~/.Xresources containing:
#include "./.emacs.d/.xEmacs"
And in that file I have (amongst other things):
Emacs.foreground: wheat
Emacs.background: darkslategrey
Emacs.pointerColor: Gold
Emacs.cursorColor: Gold
You need to remember to merge them
xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources
Using X is much faster than setting things in your .emacs btw.
my .xEmacs file I generated using an xresources exporter from emacs
after loading the color-theme I liked best. Google will tell more.
