And of course there's this old PR that would make setting the colours configurable by the user so you do not have to recompile: 

<https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/196>

iirc, it won't allow you to change the boldness of lines, if that's also desired. 

I'm personally happy with the colours as they are, but there are obviously reasons beyond aesthetics to want a different colour set (and also to be able to be able to visually distinguish between different elements: so one colour to rule them all might not be enough)
