default background color and font color

[Sridhar Anandakrishnan]

Hi, when I start abiword, it comes up with a very dark gray background 
and white letters - it is hard to see.  How do I change this to black
letters on a white page?

Thanks,
Sridhar

Not sure which version - I downloaded it from helixcode.com (now
ximian.com) for solaris 7.
