Meh.  --batch sets noninteractive; from there,
src/dispnew.c:init_display completely avoids init_display_interactive,
so initial-window-system remains nil, which AFAICT tells lisp/startup.el
to skip a bunch of window-system initialization (such as, well,
lisp/term/x-win.el:window-system-initialization).

I crammed a sizable portion of startup.el into --eval, but never got
past the "I/O possible" signal I mentioned.  Ah well.

(Past-last-minute thought: hey, maybe I should see what function
installs the handler for that signal, and see if I can reach it from
--eval…  Oh well)

Going with that 🤷

$ emacs \
    --eval "(princ (format \"color-name-to-rgb: %s\\n\"
                     (color-name-to-rgb \"#abcdef\"))
                   'external-debugging-output)" \
    -f kill-emacs
color-name-to-rgb: (0.6705882352941176 0.803921568627451 0.9372549019607843)

                                   ⁂

Some closure for whoever took the time to read this.

Here's what I initially set out to do: review the contrast of diff faces
from the Modus themes v4 (in-progress), and flag those where the ratio
dips below 7:1.

With $PWD at the root of the Modus themes repo, on branch version-4, and
the attached modus-diff-contrast.el checked out:

<https://git.sr.ht/~protesilaos/modus-themes/tree/version-4>

$ emacs -Q -L . -l modus-themes                   \
        -l modus-diff-contrast.el                 \
        -f kill-emacs

Sample screenshots attached; personal takeaways:

* refinements really are somewhat hard to see (especially source code
  comments in Ediff); bummer, since they are supposed to help words pop
  out within a line,

* the dark deuteranopia theme has poorer contrast than the "vanilla"
  dark theme, on average.

Now to decide whether it's worth pestering Prot about this, or if I
should just use v4's new knobs to make vivendi-deuteranopia backgrounds
darker 🤔


Again, jolly good times to you all.
