Is there a way to change the text of the command line in emacs? I do not know, what the real name of the command line at the bottom ist, but I marked it on the picture. It is the blue text at the bottom:
If you prefer a black background (which can be less tiring during long periods of use), you can change the background to black my customizing the default face. To change the background color and other attributes, use the command M-x customize-face , and specify default as the face to customize.
To enter Emacs, type emacs at the shell prompt. When you want to leave Emacs for a short time, type a C-z and Emacs will be suspended. To get back into Emacs, type %emacs at the shell prompt. To quit Emacs permanently, type C-x C-c.
The bottom part is called minibuffer if I recall correctly.
M-x customize-face
minibuffer-prompt
Two possibilities for this one:
One: http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/old/faq4.html Just scroll down until you see the part about color, in which it gives you the libraries where you can change emacs colors using RGB values.
Two: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/ColorTheme This one's definitely a lot more robust than you need, but it's basically a 'plugin' of sorts that allows you to customize literally any color in emacs, or use premade color themes.
