Using emacs-24.1, how can we extend/customize existing color-theme in emacs ? I tried doing this
(custom-theme-set-faces
'tango
'(ido-first-match ((t (:foreground "008800" :weight bold))))
It worked fine when I had tango loaded. But when I put this in .emacs.d/init.el file, it failed because tango was not loaded by then and emacs complained of undefined tango. This certainly is not going to help as I tend to change theme regularly using (load-theme ...). What I'm looking at is some kind of hook to run when the theme is loaded. Is it possible ?
Ofcourse, I can modify tango-theme.el file but that is not my goal. I want to extend the existing theme. I tried this in my init file
(load-theme 'tango-dark)
(custom-theme-set-faces
'tango-dark
'(ido-first-match ((t (:foreground "#00cdef" :weight bold))))
(deftheme tango)
(custom-theme-set-faces
'tango
'(ido-first-match ((t (:foreground "#008800" :weight bold))))
This worked fine for tango theme.. But tango-dark is show the same color as tango. So, how to customize existing themes even before loading them or set the custom faces at the time of loading the theme.
