Permanently override background colour of Emacs theme
- by John J. Camilleri
I want to use the Emacs theme billw, except with a different background colour.
I have the following in my .emacs file:
(require 'color-theme)
(color-theme-initialize)
(color-theme-billw)
(set-background-color "gray12")
However this doesn't seem to change the background colour on startup; I need to manually run set-background-color "gray12" in the minibuffer at the beginning of each session.
Any help with this? I tried creating my own custom theme based on the output of color-theme-print but this caused more problems than it's worth...
