Unfortunately that doesn't work in my case. The desired background
color is pure black (#000000). However both "black" and "#000000"
result in Emacs choosing the 1st color of the terminal's 16-color
palette, even when running in 256-color mode. Though pure black is my
terminal's default background color (which is independent of the
palette), it is not present in the 16-color palette.
So there's no way of explicitly specifying this background color in
Emacs unless I change my terminal's color palette, which would affect
the appearance of other terminal programs.
