That last one works, TYVM. Customization via list-faces-display
doesn't work as expected in 22.2.1 but I now have a starting point for
more elisp hacking, tnx. And I found how to make the excessive
highlighting in isearch go away on my own. Shell minibuffer still a
problem.

Maybe.  That'll take some messing around to sort out what I want from
what the author wants.

Gak! A quick look suggests that's a way to choose *which* horrible
garish colors you'd like to have.  I appreciate the functionality of
code highlighting when hacking masses of C or Perl or whatever and
would use use some carefully customized but idiosyncratic form thereof
were I doing that.  But I'm not and garish colors and highlighting
drive me crazy.

Tnx for the pointers.

(And pace vim users. No hostility here.  I even use vim gladly when
Emacs isn't available.)
