[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I wanted to use highlight-regexp to color some lines gray, but the command
did not accept the color, it only accept faces, so I had to look for a suitable
face.

These highlight-* commands should accept color names too if the user
wants a specific color, not a specific face,
