It works fine on an Emacs w/an X window, but NTEmacs bails with this error: Signaling: (error "undefined color" "RGBi:0.250000/0.004487/0.870513") set-face-attribute-internal(62 background "RGBi:0.250000/0.004487/0.870513" #) internal-set-face-1(mand-face-0 background "RGBi:0.250000/0.004487/0.870513" 5 #) set-face-background(mand-face-0 "RGBi:0.250000/0.004487/0.870513" #) set-face-background(mand-face-0 "RGBi:0.250000/0.004487/0.870513") (let ((face-sym ...) (face-color ...)) (aset mand-fleeing-faces i face-sym) (make-face face-sym) (set-face-background face-sym face-color) (set-face-foreground face-sym face-color)) So, I don't know if there's an easy way to fix the incompatibility b/w X-windows Emacs and NTEmacs, but just in case you didn't know of it.
