title: How to change default markdown's inline highlight style?
body: <p>I'm using pelican in Python to generate the static pages. It is fine to use markdown with Pygment to highlight a code block, however when it comes to the inline highlight, there is a significant difference. </p>
  
  <p>Please check <a href="http://vfxware.com/binary-format-of-the-negative-number-for-serial-device-programming.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">my page</a>. The page is in a dark background, but the inline highlight with the back ticks `` are white background.</p>
  
  <p>The markdown code is</p>
  
  <pre><code>To clearify what exactly the command returns, 
  one can use `pack('&gt;i', -2500).encode('hex')`{.python}. 
  Or I have a more complex solution like, `''.join(r'\x%02X' 
  % ord(ch) for ch in src)`{.python}.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So the question here is how to define the inline highlight style?</p>
  
  <p>I tried to altered the pygments default.css file in the pelican theme, but it didn't work. </p>
