Even on the console, jed shows bright white text same as the one in
the screenshot. Emacs however is with dull foreground. On console
there are no fonts issue. Does jed use some slang fonts? Just
wodering.

Well that was my intention, please read this post from start and see
what I originally intended to do. If only I knew how to. But the
forground color is the most important one anyway.

There shouldn't be optical illusion on the console. If I list display
colors in emacs on console, it lists jsut plain 8 colors. Thats all it
supports on console? Howcome? And Jed is able to support bright colors
even on console? I switch between jed and emacs often so would like
similar colors atleast for the foreground and background.
