hi,
changing canvas' -bg color (and keeping it changed) is simple enough.
Changing color of the canvas items (-fill color of connection lines and object text, -outline color of in/outlet rectangles, etc.) is virtually impossible, because these are hard-coded somewhere deep in g_text.c and what not. Some items are configured explicitly there, some take defaults, and they do not have grouping tags...
Neither tot, nor editing pd.tk, would do in this case.
Just for fun, though, one could send a tot something like:
tot .^.c config -bg black, tot .^.c itemconfig all -fill white
start editing, and wonder about disappearing objects...

plus, its pretty simple and the toxy test patch "tot-bulk.pd" shows you how to do it right now :)
