All these features should be able to set from the menus, under
Options / Edit Faces / Default
or in .Xdefaults add:
xemacs*Background: blue
or in ~/.emacs/custom.el
(custom-set-faces
'(default ((t (:background "grey" :size "16pt" :family "Courier"))) t))
If grey/gray is not to your liking any color named in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt should be possible.
There is an interface for editing this stuff as well
look under options-->customize emacs
Works great! On a related subject, do you know how to specify the size
of the initial window? Mine opens with a window just about right in
width, but about 50% taller than the screen, so the first thing I always
have to do is re-size the top down about half-screen, then move the
title bar back up so I can see the bottom edge of the window. Can't
seem to find this in the info faq, maybe I don't know what to search for.
