Emacs dired, which controls the color of the directory title bar

enter image description here As the image shows in the app, what is the variable, if any, that controls the color of the directory's title bar? I am trying to change dark gray to gray.

The screenshot shown shows you are using the Dired + library .

The person in question is diredp-dir-heading

.

You can tell what this person is by asking Emacs. Place the cursor on the text that has this face and press C-u C-x =

, and you will see information about the character at the point and its highlight, i.e. Including his face (s).

In this case, you will see the following:



There are text properties here:
  face                 diredp-dir-heading
  fontified            t

with diredp-dir-heading

as reference. And if you click that link, you will see a description of its attributes and a link customize this face

. If you click this link, you will be taken to the customization buffer for face customization. There you can change the look and save your changes.

Note that there is no variable which controls the appearance here, i.e. not a variable in the sense of Emacs (Lisp). Instead, there is a person who controls it. And just as you can set the value of a variable, you can set the attributes (appearance) of a face.
