That's why I mentioned an alternative method.

GNU Emacs provides a list of colors via `M-x list-colors-display
RET'.  I didn't find anything equivalent for XEmacs.

Specify a regular expression for matching.  If you want to match all
entries, insert "." (without quotation marks).  If you want to match
only specific entries and you don't want to dive into regular
expression syntax it is probably easiest to insert a substring of the
entry you are searching for.

Sure, that's what RefTeX is all about!  RefTeX's manual explains their
usage quite extensively and surely better than I could do in a single
mail.  The online help is available via `C-h i d m RefTeX RET'.
