The commit message for the change from Orchid to MediumOrchid4 is: === modified file 'lisp/ChangeLog' *** lisp/ChangeLog 2009-08-01 16:21:45 +0000 --- lisp/ChangeLog 2009-08-02 14:20:02 +0000 *************** *** 1,3 **** --- 1,9 ---- + 2009-08-02 Chong Yidong + + * font-lock.el (font-lock-string-face, font-lock-builtin-face) + (font-lock-variable-name-face, font-lock-constant-face): Darken + the colors for light backgrounds. + So presumably some people had difficulty reading Orchid on light backgrounds? Perhaps a different colour could be used in your use case that would still be legible, but separate the doc string from the keywords.
