In another test I saved "black" as background and got "black" in .emacs
but red in emacs search !?!?! I tested all colors changing
(custom-set-faces
'(isearch ((((class color) (min-colors 8)) (:background "white"
:foreground "black"))))
background entry. Only "green" appears as green, all other colors change
to other colors! What a mess! Inserting "white" results in blue (cyan)
background, and in combination with foreground black (that appears as
black, what a surprise!) I CAN WORK!!! Black on cyan is readable!!! GREAT!
As next "isearch-fail" was also unreadable , red background and grey
foreground. I went to configuration with
M-x customize-apropos-faces RET isearch RET
and saved somewhat color for background. I looked at my .emacs file and
detected:
'(isearch-fail ((((class color) (min-colors 8)) (:background "red")))))
I tested all possible colors yellow, black, green, .... All colors
appeard in other color like observed with "isearch", inserting "cyan1"
instead von red I get lightblue (=cyan) at isearch-fail. And I CAN
READ IT AND I CAN WORK! What surprise and what a mess ...
After I detected that "isearch" was resetted to magenta background ...,
I looked at .emacs and indeed: emacs config has manipulated the colors
in isearch entry although I didn' change "isearch" in M-x
customize-apropos-faces RET isearch RET !! What mess, bugs-over-bugs ...
in
emacs 23.3+1-1ubuntu9.1
