Re: for white on black ps-print generates white on white text

[Vinicius Jose Latorre]

Hi Jens,


This problem is already fixed in ps-print version 6.6.5 (the latest).

Please, do:

  (setq ps-default-fg t)
  (setq ps-default-bg t)

So, ps-print will use the Emacs session foreground and background colors.

The default value for ps-default-fg is black and for ps-default-bg is white.

Some time ago the default for both variables were t, but this was an 
annoyance by some folk.  So, I changed the default values.

Please, see the ps-default-bg and ps-default-fg doc (C-h v ps-default-fg 
RET).

Also, the settings:

  (setq ps-default-fg "black")
  (setq ps-default-bg "white")

Work as a charm.

The latest ps-print can be downloaded from Emacs CVS repository or from:

Regards,


Vinicius
