My 2c guess is that you want something like /usr/bin/dircolors which
sets the various colours used when you invoke ls.
FWIW, I have various xterm scripts in /usr/local/bin for when I want to
set the basic colours for my xterms. e.g
#! /bin/sh
exec xterm -fg black -bg LightGrey -fa mono -fs 16 &
xt-16-lg (END)
