Ok, first you need to adjust your pallette. Go to your prefs drawer and run the pallette program. Then adjust your workbench colors to a darker set. This area is highly subjective. Some folks might no like my chooses, but I use R B G Color 0 – 0 0 0 Color 1 – 0 8 15 Color 2 – 10 10 10 Color 3 – 12 3 3 Play arround with these and see what you like. Be sure to run autopilot under your new colors and see how you like it. Now, if you want to leave your workbench in this same dark pallette, then just save the colors. If you want the Workbench to keep your original colors then, select saveas from the pallette menu and save your pallete as something like "AutoPilotpalette.pre" and then create the following script: sys:prefs/palette from sys:prefs/presets/AutoPilotpalette.pre use run >nil: AP:AutoPilot wait 3 dh0:prefs/palette from sys:prefs/presets/defaultpalette.pre use call it something like APStartup and run this script to start AP. The value of the wait statement may have to be adjusted depending on the speed of you machine.
