I am using console emacs in tuareg mode to edit OCaml code. For syntax highlighting I am using the color-theme package and I am settled for some time now on the jsc-dark color theme. Sadly, the result of my OCaml editing experience is mediocre (most syntactic elements are rendered yellowish). Other color-themes I 've tried yield similar results (I actually spent the time to try out all of them). I've seen emacs screenshots on the web which use a much more variegated palette to render different parts of the OCaml language. Does anyone have a better theme or OCaml syntax highlight solution to suggest for console emacs? (not X).
So basically the link offered in the first comment helped me solve the issue. For Emacs 23 which I use I had to do two things only:
After that I was able to experience the themes in color-theme-6.6.0 for emacs much better. To test that your Emacs really sees the whole palette do a M-x list-colors-display
