My actual daily driver after a fresh boot. Nothing showy, nothing added to look fancy. Does have Urxvt with same colors as st. (Zenburn, zenburn everywhere.)

My favorite Colorscheme too! I only use it in text editors.Just a few questions if you don't mind :)

Does emacs retain the exact colors of zenburn when you use it in a terminal and in a tty (no-X) ?

If the X-version is themed, then you're going to end up with odd background colors in a colored terminal emulator in some cases. I have a few installs that run emacs-nox (actually, most of them) and in those I don't theme emacs at all and instead allow the ansi escapes in the environment to handle the coloring there.

That being said, I believe that you should be able to explicitly set the theme by which mode that it's running in. I've not done it, but it's WELL within reason to be able to detect on init what mode it's running in and use the zenburn.el if in X, and stay with Angry-Fruit-Salad (allowing the terminal to handle the theming) if not.

If needed, here is what I do to keep Emacs theme working both in X and in a term:

Code: Select all

(if (daemonp)
    (add-hook 'after-make-frame-functions
	      '(lambda (f)
		 (with-selected-frame f
		   (when (window-system f) (load-theme 'solarized-dark t)))))
  (load-theme 'solarized-dark t))

;; Functions to remove background when on terminals
(defun on-frame-open (frame)
  (if (not (display-graphic-p frame))
      (set-face-background 'default "unspecified-bg" frame)))
(on-frame-open (selected-frame))

(add-hook 'after-make-frame-functions 'on-frame-open)

(defun on-after-init ()
  (unless (display-graphic-p (selected-frame))
    (set-face-background 'default "unspecified-bg" (selected-frame))))

(add-hook 'window-setup-hook 'on-after-init)

^^ unproven assertions that a larger tree gives more shadow (!)

No idea what is going on with Joe, he is like a notification bubble: pops up, says something, disappears on mouse-over. :) I guess he is fine, else he would have told us already ;)
