Thanks Ralph.

In the meanwhile I had found out the "NOCOLORS" setting in make.conf which works for "emerge".

man pages in color are the other most important problem right now. I will check out your suggestion.

My question is how do I get rid of colors in "emerge", "man" and other
command line programs.
The methods vary between command line tools.  You can for example
disable the 'manpager' USE flag for sys-apps/man-db. The manual page for
emerge mentions different methods (search for "--color"). Depending on
the terminal software you use, you might be able to select monochromatic
colour profiles (iterm2 for macOS does support this).
