Hi group.  Very new X-programmer here, with (hopefully) a very basic
question about the Athena Command Widget.

What can I do to make my label more legible?  I am changing the
background Pixmap of the command widget, which often makes the text in
the label illegible.  Is there any way I can set the background of the
label to be black (white text), but still leave the command widget
background in my favorite pixmap?

thanks much for your help
