Right, but you also said that I could override the system colors with a
customized .gtkrc file but it appears one was never created which goes
against the procedures outlined in the websites you provided.  So
there's either an additional bug that the .gtkrc file isn't being
generated as it should -- even though a theme can be applied and
everything but the ledger colors change* -- or a very different file
name and location is used to store this data and the documentation is
out of date.


* I used the theme selector tool and was able to change the colors on
version 2.6.3.  The buttons, tabs, status bar, scroll bars, and other
visual features changed with the theme changes, only the ledger lines don't.
