Hello David,
Thanks for the response,

I added the margin to overall document. But I am not sure howto add margin
inside the <programlisting>. If anyone has any idea on how to do this,
please let me know.

I changed the text color to black (#000000).

This will take some time for me to learn color theory. Anyone wants to
help me??? :)
Thanks.
