I think that's not an anomaly, but a bug. Juri, can you explain how did this happen? If that's an 8-color xterm, then the code in tty-color-values should not distinguish between xterm and any other 8-color TTY. If the xterm in question supports more than 8 colors, please tell the details, including how many colors it supports, how were the colors set up, and how did you test the above classification. > OTOH, the formula I proposed in January produces the same > classification on TTY, xterm and X as: > > Dark: black red green blue magenta > Light: yellow cyan white > > Could you propose it again now? A formula that classifies red and magenta the same on X and on a TTY is probably not very good, since the TTY's "red" is much darker that the X's "red". See the WARNING in the comments near the beginning of tty-colors.el, for more about this. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
