OK, great.  That is actually a very important use-case, and more in line

Thanks.  So, Dan, you should be able to reproduce it.

Yes, of course: doing that initializes a 256-color xterm again, and
that re-fills the list of colors with what was there originally.

I also noticed that, once the problem has happened, if I close the
emacsclient frame with C-x 5 0, then create another one with
TERM=xterm-256color, the colors in the *Colors* buffer are restored.

It was described in the original report of this bug, see

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2015-12/msg00420.html
  http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=22154#5

That's not the same use case.  The one you should indeed works,
because the foreground and background colors are recorded separately
for each frame.  IOW, this is not related to the issue at hand.

The issue at hand is how a TTY frame interprets a color specified
either by its name, like "LavenderBlush", or by an RGB value, like
#FF12EC.  As you certainly remember, we look for the best match in the
list returned by tty-color-alist, then use the numeric value of that
best match to send the corresponding escape sequence to the TTY
device.

The problem I alluded to has 2 facets:

  . the list which we need to find the best matching supported color
    is overwritten every time we initialize another tty, because that
    list is maintained as a single global variable

  . the escape sequences and the number of supported colors are also
    overwritten, because they are restored from a single static
    variable

My patch solves the 2nd part, but the first also needs to be solved.

> Unfortunately I don't have a more recent emacs version on this machine...

I don't think you need a newer Emacs, the same problem should exist in
24.5.  Just do what the OP did with an Emacs running under a 256-color
xterm and a client frame started under an 8-color xterm.  If this
works in Emacs 24.5, I'm probably missing something very important.

Eric, can you test your scenario with Emacs 24.5, please?

Sorry, I don't remember the details, but it did work
In fact I just tried on emacs 24.5 with 3 terminals: xterm
with TERM=vt100, rxvt -fg black -bg white and rxvt -fg white -bg black.
emacsclient -t connected to the same emacs daemon
M-x list-faces-display looks correct on all 3 of the simultaneously.
Editing C code in a file displayed on the 3 terminals looks fine,
everything gets fontified with the expected colors everywhere.
Unfortunately I don't have a more recent emacs version on this machine...

The fact that the default escape sequences for turning colors on or
off are stored in global variables that get overwritten each time
another tty is initialized.

I don't know.  It's possible that the fact that set_tty_color_mode is
now called as part of redisplay exposed some issue.

And I don't understand how could what you describe work when there's
only one global value of tty-defined-color-alist.  Can you explain how
that worked, given that each terminal's initialization overwrites that
list?

What exactly is the problem that your patch fixes?
I don't remember all the details, but having multiple terminal frames
running on multiple kinds of terminals, with different color depths and
even background modes was heavily tested when the multi-tty work was
going on.  One of the usual tests was to have rxvt with both 8 and 256
colors and white on black and black on white (rxvt not xterm because
rxvt sets an environment variable with the default color and emacs can
decide if it's a light or dark background based on that).  It worked
fine.
Did something break meanwhile or you are dealing with some new thing
that was not dealt with back then? 

Thanks

This simple use case indeed (almost) works.  (To have it work better,
you need the patch I posted here.)  But in general, the current
implementation doesn't support this, AFAICT, for 2 reasons:

  . The default escape sequences sent to the terminal for turning
    colors on and off are stored in a single global set of values (the
    default_* variables in term.c).  So every time set_tty_color_mode
    is called, and the frame's parameters don't include the
    tty-color-mode parameter (which is what happens usually) the
    escape sequences get overwritten by the ones of the last tty we
    initialized.  It so happens that the display calls
    set_tty_color_mode each time you switch to a different frame on a
    TTY, so the risk of this happening is quite high, especially if
    some frames do have the tty-color-mode parameter.  The patch I
    sent solves this part.

  . The value of tty-defined-color-alist is global, so every call to a
    terminal-specific FOO-register-default-colors will modify that
    global value with its own colors, and those of the previous tty
    will be lost.  For example, the initialization of xterm-256 fills
    tty-defined-color-alist with colors whose names are "color-0",
    "color-1", etc., but if you later initialize an 8-color xterm,
    these get nuked, and only the 8 or 16 standard colors remain
    there.

The second part problem could only be fixed by making
tty-defined-color-alist a terminal-local variable.

Am I missing something?

Using different number of colors on different ttys should work.
I just tried it briefly, and it works fine on my Fedora machine with
24.5.
I don't have a very recent version compiled.

You can try it with
$ emacs -Q -f server-start&
Then from an xterm: emacsclient -t
And then from a different one: env TERM=vt100 emacsclient -t

The frame in the first xterm should display some colors, the one in the
second should be b&w...

Using different number of colors on different ttys should work.
I just tried it briefly, and it works fine on my Fedora machine with
24.5.
I don't have a very recent version compiled.

You can try it with
$ emacs -Q -f server-start&
Then from an xterm: emacsclient -t
And then from a different one: env TERM=vt100 emacsclient -t

The frame in the first xterm should display some colors, the one in the
second should be b&w...

Right.  I guess we will have to make tty-defined-color-alist
terminal-specific, or something.  This will have to wait until after
25.1, sorry.

Aha!  As Emily Litella says, "That's quite different" :-)

So I added some "message" calls, as described by the attached patch.
Here's what I see in *Messages* after simply running `emacs -Q`:

    terminal-init-xterm doin=E2=80=99 its thang.  (tty-color-alist) returns=
 a
list of length 8.
    terminal-init-xterm is done.  (tty-color-alist) now returns a list
of length 256.
    For information about GNU Emacs and the GNU system, type C-h C-a.

And here's what I see after I create the new frame:

    You can run the command =E2=80=98server-start=E2=80=99 with M-x ser-s R=
ET
    terminal-init-xterm doin=E2=80=99 its thang.  (tty-color-alist) returns=
 a
list of length 256.
    terminal-init-xterm is done.  (tty-color-alist) now returns a list
of length 8.
    When done with this frame, type C-x 5 0

So clearly: xterm.el initialization _is_ getting called for the client
frame, and it _does_ modify tty-color-alist.

I've put the actual before-and-after values returned from
`(tty-color-alist)' into a second attachment, since the "before" value
is quite long.

No, I meant the value returned by tty-color-alist, which is stored in
the variable tty-defined-color-alist.

I assume you meant `tty-color-mode-alist'.  After running `emacs -Q' with
TERM set to `xterm-256color`, I see

tty-color-mode-alist is a variable defined in =E2=80=98tty-colors.el=E2=80=
=99.
Its value is ((never . -1)
 (no . -1)
 (default . 0)
 (auto . 0)
 (ansi8 . 8)
 (always . 8)
 (yes . 8))

After the client frame is created, it's the same.

`terminal-init-xterm` does indeed run when I create the client frame, but
as you can see, it doesn't modify tty-color-mode-alist.

It could also be tty-color-alist.  Can you tell me what's in it after
Emacs starts on a 256-color xterm, and after the client frame is
created?  Also, does xterm.el initialization get called for the client
frame, and does it modify tty-color-alist?

Strange, it did make a difference on my system.

I guess I will then have to ask you to step in a debugger through
set_tty_color_mode and tty_setup_colors, and tell what is stored in
the default_* members of the tty object during the main Emacs
initialization and when the client frame is created.  I have no access
to a system with a 256-color xterm.

It wasn't intentional.  I was trying out a new terminal (a
"terminal-in-your-browser" feature that's part of the "Jupyter notebook" (
http://jupyter.org/).  I created one of those terminals on the machine on
which I was running emacs, and, in order to see it work, I started an
emacsclient.

Out of curiosity: why would you want to downgrade the number of colors
in the client frames wrt the number supported by the server?

This was never supported, we always assumed that the number of colors
on all tty frames is the same.

Does the patch below fix the problem?

I have TERM set to 'xterm-256color'.

I started emacs with `/mnt/emacs-25/src/emacs -Q`

I confirmed that 256 colors "worked" by doing M-x list-colors-display
RET, and noting that there were about 256 lines of output, with plenty
of different colors.

I typed M-x server-start RET.

In another terminal on the same machine, I typed `TERM=xterm
/mnt/emacs-25/lib-src/emacsclient -c`.  That displayed a *scratch*
buffer, as I'd expected.

In that new frame, I typed `M-x list-colors-display RET`.  I noticed
that now there were only eight lines of output.

I did C-x 5 0 to delete the new frame, then back in the original frame
again typed `M-x list-colors-display RET`, and noted that there were
still only eight lines of output.

I don't directly care about the number of output lines from the
list-colors-display command, but I do directly care that, for example,
the face "brightyellow" looks different from the default; that's the
case when 256 colors are "working", but not when they're not.  It was
