<p>thanks for the quick reply, however I do not find that string anywhere in either geany or plugins-master :?</p>
<pre><code>~/geany-plugins-master
-bash-4.4#echo; echo; grep -R vte_terminal_set_foreground_color *


-bash-4.4#cd ~/geany-master
-bash-4.4#echo; echo; grep -R vte_terminal_set_foreground_color *

</code></pre>
<p>Are you sure that is typed correctly?</p>
<p>I'm guessing from the brief reply that there is not means of setting the text colour from the GUI. That seems to be an defect at least if there is anything apart from scope using this kind of console.</p>
<p>I'm happy to go and hack the colour and rebuild since I'm on a patched version anyway, but having a non configurable , poor visibility default is not so good.</p>
