I found `tty-color-approximate' to be very useful when trying to pick face foregrounds and backgrounds that would look nice in X and on TTYs without needing conditional face specs. I'm only one user out of many, but I did find the function to be quite useful for a user-level task. Ted -- Edward O'Connor ted@oconnor.cx Ense petit placidam sub libertate quietem.
