[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #57658] [MXE Octave] grey text color after mkoctfile error message in gui terminal widget

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #35, bug #57658 (project octave):

We never came to an agreement of whether we want to swap the "foreground
colors" with the "background colors" in the color palette for Windows.
The original palette was copied from the command window on Windows which uses
a black background by default. The command window in Octave uses a white
background by default.

I personally find the light grey text on white background quite difficult to
read. So I proposed to swap the colors in the color palette.
But there were objections because this color palette is hard-coded and a user
would not be able to set these colors manually.
