List of colours to choose from is in a file called /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt. The combination of colours dependes upon your personal choice, and trial and error is the best answer. My personal choice is: emacs*background:DarkSlateGrey emacs*foreground:Wheat Bish On Wed, Aug 23, 2000 at 10:42:3

Try a program like gcolorsel. Very handy. Also remember that if you want the resources to be read automatically when you login Debian uses .Xresources rather then .Xdefaults. At least this is the way /etx/X11/Xsession seems setup to behave. Tal On Wed, 23 Aug 2000 10:42:38 +0200, Goeman Stefan
