[R] Is there some way to customize colours for the View output?

[Duncan Murdoch]

I just tried it on an old Windows computer.  I don't see dataeditfg in 
the preferences menu; I think it is the internal variable name used for 
"dataedittext".

The row and column names don't appear to be controllable from that menu, 
they seem (on my machine) to be displayed in the same colour as the 
background of a dialog box, i.e. some kind of gray.  I don't think R 
tries to control that colour, but perhaps some Windows setting would 
change it.
