I checked in the following change to force the terminal window in the

It also doesn't quite work properly.  It does give black on white for
the terminal window, but when less displays its prompt for more input,
all I see now is a black bar.

So does anyone know the proper way to fix this problem so the terminal
colors will match the rest of Octave on Windows systems?

Even better than that, can anyone help to allow these colors to be
customized by the user?

Did you try to invert the colors in libgui/qterminal/libqterminal/win32/QTerminalColors.cpp instead?
