Re: emacs -nw niggles

hi Tim,

| TERM=xterm should already be getting you the 8 color default theme. So it
| sounds like the default color theme may have actually changed.
| Unfortunately I'm not equipped to answer that.
|
| I'll also say that many terminal emulators provide the ability to theme
| them. So it may be that your terminal emulator has a 'high contrast' theme
| of some sort that increases the contrast between the colors which emacs
| will then inherit.
|
| Good luck!

thanks ... i'll probe the xterm capabilities

cheers,

richard.
