 Hi,

 See
 https://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?p=97019#top

 Currently there is no option to change background color in GLK engine for
 adventure games. It is now blue. Lovely color, but for reading imho not
 the best.
 My preference would be 'night mode' so black background with white fonts
 but there might be other opinions out there.
 Best would be to make it adjustable via a menu but if that is too much
 work it would be nice to have it at least enabled via a config file.
 Fontsize is already adjustable in the configfile (e.g  propsize=30) but I
 haven't found a method to change the background color.

 If that isn't possible as well, I would suggest at least to change the
 default blue background color.

 combination-for-on-screen-reading

 Consensus seems to be black / white is the best for readability and my
 suggestion would be black background, white fonts because then you also
 cover folks that want to use scummvm at night. Blue is basically the worst
 color to use before bedtime.
