Subject: XEmacs Frame color inversion on password entry -vs- Gnus custom
Date: 03 Dec 1995 11:10:04 -0800 [thread overview]

Symptom: When mailcrypt reads a password for message (de|en)cryption,
or PGP signature, the colors are not restored cleanly after frame
color inversion.
The color inversion algorithm in utils/passwd.el is apparently not
completely compatible with Gnus custom faces, some of which get
changed to black by the process.
The odd thing about this is that if Options/Edit Faces is selected,
the colors appear normal there. The faces that have trouble are the
ones that are doubled in the *Edit Faces* buffer. RoyalBlue (Bold &
Normal) and DarkGreen (Normal) in my setup.
The best work around is to use Chuck's flag:
(setq passwd-invert-frame-when-keyboard-grabbed nil)
This turns color inversion off, and has the added benefit of working
like GNU Emacs too. I doubt the original author has much time for
fixing this sort of thing :-).
