Subject: bug#15974: 24.3.50; emacs -Q -nw: awful color for input fields: BRIGHT YELLOW
Date: Mon, 25 Nov 2013 11:13:43 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4f10904c-6fb1-470f-a2fd-0032209f80dc@default> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 745 bytes --]
See attached screenshot, for emacs -Q -nw, of a Customize buffer, showing
color-name fields and face fields.
"What were they thinking?" is what anyone looking at this should think.
All user input fields, including the giant search field, are BRIGHT YELLOW.
On a black background, no less.
A much better color choice for this would be something like `lightgray' or
`darkgray'. This is nuts. Hard to believe that no one has complained
about this before now, or that it has not been corrected before now.
In GNU Emacs 24.3.50.1 (i686-pc-mingw32)
of 2013-11-20 on LEG570
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 6.1.7601
Configured using:
`configure --enable-checking 'CFLAGS=-O0 -g3' CPPFLAGS=-DGLYPH_DEBUG=1'
