I have a new emacs installed in another computer, and have
forgotten how to set the highlight colour - I have searched
in the options but didn't find what I want - I want yellow
highlighting, not white on the light grey background, as I
now have here. Where should I look in the options?

(setq initial-frame-alist
'((width . 90)
(height . 54)
;(tool-bar-lines . 1)
(cursor-color . "blue")
;(cursor-type . box)
(width . 90)
(height . 54)
(background-color . "honeydew")))

;; subsequent window settings
(setq default-frame-alist
'((menu-bar-lines . 1)
;(tool-bar-lines . 1)
(cursor-color . "blue")
;(cursor-type . box)
(width . 90)
(height . 54)
(background-color . "honeydew")))

If you go via customize, you have to specify the color "honeydew" and
not honeydew
