Well, I didn't suggest to change it in the first place, so I really am not the man to ask. I guess the idea is that diff context needs to be readable after all. > Or more specifically, why is it only good for `diff-context' on color > terminals with more than 88 colors? Probably because, with more than 88 colors, the shadow face is more readable than the current color on 16- and 8-color tty's. > It should work just fine on gray-level terminals Yes, those should need a separate definition, if we change the current one. > and if the result is completely unreadable on terminals with less > than 88 colors, thenwhy shouldn't that problem also be fixed for the > `shadow' face? It's not ``completely unreadable'', at least not in my opinion. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
