As far as I know, GTK3 themes won't ignore gtkrc stuff for non-GTK3
apps, and Meld doesn't (yet) support GTK 3. Documentation for
customising the colours is in-progress, but in the meantime...
All of the customisable colours are listed in data/gtkrc
(http://git.gnome.org/browse/meld/tree/data/gtkrc). -bg and -outline
are used for file comparisons, the side bar and the central bar. -text
is used for folder and version control comparisons. With the exception
of current-line-highlight, everything is named in terms of the state
it's used to represent in a comparison.
To override these colours (assuming you're running Meld from recent
git... the version with gtkrc support is unreleased) you can either
directly edit the gtkrc file Meld reads, or create a "~/.gtkrc-2.0"
file of your own to add overrides to. You probably want to increase
the priority from the "lowest" that we use by default.
Hope that helps.
cheers,
Kai
