Well, I don't know about the default colors, but how about using the program
SetAmiga to change your preferences right before entering AMAX?  You could
make an iconx script to do it automatically before entering AMAX.

(SetAmiga (SetPrefs) is on fish 157 and lets you make a library of
 system-configuration files which it can recall at an instance)

Or as a second solution:  I have written a little program in Lightspeed C
which lets you change the colors AMAX uses.  I'd like to make the program
a desk accessory or, better for your use, an Init, but I don't know how.
