well in terminal emulators like rxvt and xterm, you can change the colors from default in your .Xdefaults; i'd assume you might be able to do this for dterm as well. Eterm is cool because you can create various themes and then call them as Eterm -t themename. i have my colors for mutt terminals set totally differently from other terminal settings. w
