Sorry, I don't have time right now to look at the code and check.
The use of NSDefaults to set system colors used to work (I know 'cos I 
wrote it and
tested it), but people have worked on the code since I last used it, and 
it may have
been broken.

The simple format for specifying colors should be as three floating 
point numbers
(rgb in the range 0.0 to 1.0) separated by white space.

eg.

defaults write NSGlobalDomain selectedTextBackgroundColor '0.0 1.0 0.0'
