'light green' for hi-green is actually the background color highlight and black is = foreground for the text 'darkgreen' was what we could agree on for `Hi Green B=E2=80=99=20 We are probably in agreement. >=20 >>> Regarding your idea of using rainbow colors, the problem >>> is that on TTY there are only these colors: >>>=20 >>> red, green, yellow, blue, magenta, cyan >>>=20 >>> hi-blue face uses cyan color, not blue, and >>> hi-pink face uses magenta color, not red. >>>=20 >>> Since hi-yellow uses yellow, and hi-green uses green already, >>> unfortunately there are no other colors available on TTY. >>=20 >> That's a rabbit hole beyond scope.

The rainbow/artist=E2=80=99s coloring pencils theme for hi-faces is = nicer to have for the wm-frame-windowing environment.=
