When I select text with the left mouse button, I get underlined text instead
of my preference, reverse video.  Can someone tell me what I need to change to
get back the pre-3.2 behavior? 

Thanks.

      (set-style-foreground motion::style "CornflowerBlue")
      (set-style-underline motion::style "Black")

There is also a set-style-background.
This is under Buttons:: Style Primitives:: in the epoch manual.  RTFM!

Method 1:
(set-style-foreground motion::style (background))
(set-style-background motion::style (foreground))
(set-style-underline motion::style nil)

Method 2:
(set-attribute-style motion::attribute nil)
