Emacs on windows 7, setting up color themes


  1. Create this folderC:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\.emacs.d\color-theme-6.6.0 (change or remove the version number as you like)
  2. Go to color-theme homepage and get the latest.  I got color-theme-6.6.0.zip
  3. Unzip and dump the file color-theme.el and the folder themes into the folder you created in step 1
  4. As per the references for ColorTheme and emacs Load Path, add the following to your.emacs (you may have to strip out any previous color theme settings yourself):
         (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/color-theme-6.6.0") 
         (require 'color-theme)
         (setq color-theme-is-global t)
         (color-theme-initialize)
         ;; A nice dark color theme
         (color-theme-lawrence)
