Editing the following verbs in ~system/utils/extra/jhserver.ijs will give the 
above style statement (watch wrap around).

hfont=: 3 : 0
t=.  ' body, .prose {font-family:sans-serif; font-size:13px; color:#008080;}',LF
t=.t,' .fm, .er, .log, .sys, .file, input {font-family:',PC_FONTFAMILY,'; 
font-size:',PC_FONTSIZE,'; color:',PC_FONT_COLOR,'}',LF
)

NB. je sentence - jijx mtyo class fonts
hfontclass=: 3 : 0
t=.   ' *.btn  {background:lightblue;font-weight:bold;}',LF                     
                        
t=. t,' *.fm   {color:',PC_FM_COLOR,  ';}',LF
t=. t,' *.er   {color:',PC_ER_COLOR,  ';}',LF
