Hi
Isn't possible just to change values in etc/Rconsole file?
## Colours for console and pager(s)
# (see rwxxxx/etc/rgb.txt for the known colours).
background = White
normaltext = NavyBlue
usertext = Red
highlight = DarkRed
You can customise it and keep your setting somewhere. With each new
installation just copy appropriate part aof Rconsole file and save it.
That's not necessarily the right place to look: see ?Rconsole. It
will look in R_USER/Rconsole first. You can suppress
the lookup by putting --no-Rconsole on the command line.
If the original poster is finding the colours aren't working when he's
sure he's got the right file, please post details.
