dear emacs wizards:

in auctex, I have absolutely perfect colors under linux in its gnome/X windows.  the '$' sign for a new line is a nice muted gray.  but if I open emacs inside a terminal window (with -nw), which I do when I ssh into my computer, the colors become a whole lot more garish and obtrusive.  the '$' for a new line is now a bright red.  my guess is that a terminal window pretends to be some sort of ansi (TERM=xterm,COLORTERM=gnome-terminal), which has more limited colors, so emacs picks something different from its more limited palette.  correct?

how can I make my with in-terminal colors in auctex similar to my in-Xgnome colors in auctex?  I could alter the colors that the terminal itself is displaying.  this is probably not a good idea.  the worst aspect is the bright red on the $-newline, which I would love to switch to a muted gray.  is there an easy way just to change at least this one item (permanently) in a terminal window only?

regards,

/iaw
