+@defun make-color-specifier spec-list
+
+Return a new @code{color} specifier object with the given specification
+list. @var{spec-list} can be a list of specifications (each of which is
+a cons of a locale and a list of instantiators), a single instantiator,
+or a list of instantiators. @xref{Specifiers}, for a detailed
+description of how specifiers work.
+
+Valid instantiators for color specifiers are:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item
+A string naming a color (e.g. under X this might be "lightseagreen2" or
+"#F534B2").
+
+@item
+A color instance (use that instance directly if the device matches,
+or use the string that generated it).
+
+@item
+A vector of no elements (only on TTY's; this means to set no color at
+all, thus using the "natural" color of the terminal's text).
+
+@item
+A vector of one or two elements: a face to inherit from, and optionally
+a symbol naming which property of that face to inherit, either
+@code{foreground} or @code{background} (if omitted, defaults to the same
+property that this color specifier is used for; if this specifier is not
+part of a face, the instantiator would not be valid).
+@end itemize
+@end defun
+
+@defun make-face-boolean-specifier spec-list
+
+Return a new @code{face-boolean} specifier object with the given spec
+list. @var{spec-list} can be a list of specifications (each of which is
+a cons of a locale and a list of instantiators), a single instantiator,
+or a list of instantiators. @xref{Specifiers}, for a detailed
+description of how specifiers work.
+
+Valid instantiators for face-boolean specifiers are
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item
+t or nil.
+@item
+A vector of two or three elements: a face to inherit from, optionally a
+symbol naming the property of that face to inherit from (if omitted,
+defaults to the same property that this face-boolean specifier is used
+for; if this specifier is not part of a face, the instantiator would not
+be valid), and optionally a value which, if non-@code{nil}, means to invert the
+sense of the inherited property.
