Hi Gene!

LOL ... I think the rinity mailinglist has an archive :-)

Place this in your .bashrc if you run linuxcnc from commandline (all in one 
line):

alias linuxcnc="xrdb -all -query|sed -e 's#[A-Z_]*BACKGROUND# gray90#' -e 
's#[A-Z_]*FOREGROUND# Black#'  -e 's#[A-Z_]*HIGHLIGHT# White#' -e 
's#[A-Z_]*LOWLIGHT# Black#'|xrdb -merge; linuxcnc"

or place this fragment in .xinitrc (all in one line) or any script that gets 
executed when you log into your X session:

xrdb -all -query|sed -e 's#[A-Z_]*BACKGROUND# gray90#' -e 's#[A-Z_]*FOREGROUND# 
Black#'  -e 's#[A-Z_]*HIGHLIGHT# White#' -e 's#[A-Z_]*LOWLIGHT# Black#'|xrdb 
-merge
