For your and my better understanding:
- I had to unset foreground and background colors, as I wanted to use
emacsclient -nw in xterm but the current theme was not quite
readable in console
- to change the theme with customize-themes, I had to unset foreground
and background color, as otherwise changing theme simply does not
work. This may be another bug, and I do so for many months as a
workaround to change the them. Usually I unset the
foreground/background color, even if under emacs -Q and only then I
am able to see the changes of the changing themes function
customize-themes
- but this time I had both GUI and console, unsetting
foreground/background color in console, made GUI have miniscule
faces or fonts
Thus my intention is and was not to change the background and
foreground color, rather to unset it so that I can change the theme.
When the GUI practically disappears due to shrinkage of faces, that
still seem a bug, and shrinking faces are to me as user not related to
unsetting of foreground and background colors.
