Different colors per user

I have a situation where certain users want different filePro colors
than the bulk of other users (e.g. TEXTNORMAL, TEXTINVERSE, etc.).
There are dozens of users on the system and this applies to only a
handful of them.
I thought i might set it in PFCONFIG, but if i put it in that file
then it appears i have to duplicate the rest of the settings from
the default ../fp/lib/config as fp apparently reads only one file (either/or)
- this would make it a pain if i had to change a setting globally, so i'm
looking for other ideas.
The application is too large to merit putting it into fp processing
just for a small minority of users, looking for an easier solution.
fp 5.6.6/sco openserver 6 - term's are ansi/ansic - i can not control
what terminal emulation software is used from the PC's that come in
(via telnet or ssh), so i can't do it there.
Being that this is unix, I guess one option might be for a startup script
to create a personal config file on the fly @ login with a combination of
a default config file and a personal one, but thats a bit of a kludge.
