 I don't think I call this a bug as such.  The man page could be clearer
 but unsetting $DISPLAY to ensure no X seems reasonable enough.
 

Okay, I'll merge it with the other bug that complains about the same
documentation issue then and see whether I can find a reasonable way to
update the man page.

Thanks for clarifying.

cheers

 To force text mode I have preferred unset DISPLAY; aumix over

 colours.

 Interesting, I've never seen that issue. Have you tried specifying a
 different colour scheme file with the -C option?

Yes, eg.

aumix -C ansi

which is different colours than the default.

I struck force text mode myself when wanting to run aumix inside an
Emacs terminal-mode buffer.  I tried -C described in the man page but I
didn't want to change the colours (leave that for user preference) so I
ended up unsetting $DISPLAY to ensure it wouldn't run the X mode.

Okay thanks, I'll need to look into this. Do you only get the wrong
colours when running aumix in Emacs or have you seen similar issues in a
normal terminal window? If so, which terminal emulator were you using?

For now I'll be splitting the bug report since the colour scheme is an
issue on its own.

This is on the linux console vc.  I don't call the colours wrong, only
that specifying a colour file is different from the default.

Oh, I remember further why I didn't rate the -C.  With the aumix
package installed a bare

aumix -C
=
aumix: option requires an argument -- 'C'

whereas with the aumix-gtk package installed

aumix -C
=
runs the text mode interface

I had thought maybe a colour file -C something could satisfy the plain
aumix package, but then found there was no colour file for the default
colours.

I don't think I call this a bug as such.  The man page could be clearer
but unsetting $DISPLAY to ensure no X seems reasonable enough.
