Changing colors in Cincom VW?

| Anyone know how to change the (background?) color of a text editing
window - by that I mean the window inside the browser that you type
code into? It's white, but it's a little hard on the eyes, and I'd
like to change it to something else, like an off white, or something
along the lines of the color in Dolphin. Right clicking and middle
clicking offers no options, neither do the view or edit or window menus
at the top. I looked for something in the parcels and goodies which
came with it, but found nothing.
Thanks.

| VisualWorks uses the system colors defined by Windows. Open the Control
Panel / Display / Appearance window and change your color scheme to
Marine (as an example). See what the browsers look like then.

| If you're *really* curious, here's a bit of an insight into how color
preferences system works in VisualWorks. Just do-it,
(Array
with: SymbolicPaint menuBarBackground
with: SymbolicPaint menuBackground
with: SymbolicPaint background) do:
[:paint | Screen default defaultPaintPreferences matchAt: paint put:
ColorValue red].
WindowManager restoreAll
Cheers!
