I got this from Juergen (author of gnu-apl) a few days ago:
Other points and your attachment and Stefan's suggestion look promising.
Will study and get back in a bit

Subject: Colors for GNU APL
To: ...


Hello,

I have updated GNU APL which now supports a config file where you
can store some frequently used settings , in particular related to colors
(disabling colors and colors for terminals with e.g. black backgrounds).

See "info apl.info" for details.

An example file containing  (commented out) settings for black backgrounds
is now installed with GNU APL. See e.g. /etc/gnu-apl.d/preferences (or whatever
your system configuration directory might be instead of /etc).
