Hello,
recently our IT has upgraded Emacs from 22.3 to 23.2. I am slowly
recovering! One last thing I have problems with is the colors of the
font-lock keywords in ESS. Some words in functions arguments, for example
"TRUE" or "FALSE" or "NULL" appear in a color so pale that I can't read
them.
If I go in customize > faces > font lock > font lock faces > font lock type
face and customize it to a suitable color for my display and then click on
«customize for current session» and on «save for future sessions» then the
color is changed for the current session but when I restart Emacs it's back
to the old settings. Customize has written the following lines in my
.emacs file:
(custom-set-faces
;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
'(default ((t (:inherit nil :stipple nil :background "LightBlue"
:foreground "Maroon" :inverse-video nil :box nil :strike-through nil
:overline nil :underline nil :slant normal :weight bold :height 137 :width
normal :foundry "b&h" :family "lucidatypewriter"))))
'(dired-header ((t (:inherit default :foreground "OrangeRed"))))
'(font-lock-type-face ((t (:foreground "OrangeRed"))))
'(outline-5 ((t (:inherit font-lock-type-face :foreground "OrangeRed")))))
The other settings do stick around but not the "font-lock-type-face". Any
idea why it is so?
Thanks,
