Color Themes in EMACS

Do you think emacs is boring to look at?

Check out this EMACS color theme tester.

If you think those screens look better than your current EMACS screen, then:

mkdir $HOME/src/lisp
cd $HOME/src/lisp
wget http://download.gna.org/color-theme/color-theme-6.6.0.tar.gz
tar xfvz color-theme-6.6.0.tar.gz
cd $HOME

Edit $HOME/.emacs with some other editor; e.g. nano .emacs.

Add these lines:

(setq load-path (cons "~/src/lisp/color-theme-6.6.0" load-path))
(require 'color-theme)
(color-theme-initialize)
(color-theme-hober)
If it doesn't seem to work, try adding one more line:
(require 'color-theme)
(setq color-theme-is-global t)
(color-theme-hober)

If the hober theme don't do it for you, try some other themes:

M-x color-theme-select RET
