^ Thanks :)

^^ No, not Kylin - it's quite bloated compared to Ubuntu (yup, imagine this) -- actually the language support in Ubuntu without the Kylin overhead is excellent, TBH I don't really get it why they need Kylin as a separately maintained release. Too much manpower maybe 'D

Wow Bacon. This is Ubuntu done right. :)

Trying to make a monochrome amber theme that works with dialog, mc, emacs, tmux and whatever you throw at it.
Not quite happy with it yet (maybe forever).

I think the thing that's missing is the true glow and antialiasing of phosphor. :)

^^ I love that orange/amber, but can't that grey line be tweaked too?
Will there be a release with it, or maybe .Xresources in the github for it?

Unread post by **machinebacon** » Thu Jun 18, 2015 5:54 pm

^ Yeah it could be tweaked, they are exactly the two colors I have to play around with. Not easy :) (Usually, every time when there's a new amber Xcolors theme, there will be a Slackware-based new release, cough cough, hope this answers the question)

All the .Xresources that are posted here will sooner or later be on the BBQ github - depends if the original author adds them to the repo -, and if they are in the github, they are also *always* on the release ISO. So, if you contribute, you'll be featured :)

Which of course means that everyone who contributes /here/ can also additionally add Xcolors and fbcolors to the github. Simply log in at github, send a PM to one of our BBQ team members (https://github.com/linuxbbq), and we add you to the team, so you can add your stuff.

Cool good to know Julius! For some odd reason I have a weakness for the darker warm colours.
Ahem, slack you say? ;)

Drew played around with pidsley's env-info, so I did the same and added a few unimportant things. Wallpaper from http://squidfingers.com/patterns/1/ somewhere..., Xresources is thestare. On the right there's bbqexit, which I have bound to a keycombo.

^^ Holly shit, Julius, that is very smooth to look at. Just the right light/glow so the eyes don't get tired too quickly +1
And I think quite a few in here like pastel colours :)
Keep up the beautiful work mate!

Cheers
Simon

Your env-info script is titillating :D Like simgin said, nice and smooth.

That is a high quality wall for sure. The env info is like an improved inxi..

env-info looks fantastic. i never realized how cool it was that pids did that, but now i do.

Thank you. env-info is very hackable, because I wrote it as functions -- it's very easy to add functions without breaking what's already there, and easy to remove crap you don't want. Try that with screenfetch ;)

I put an experimental version on github. Extra crap included. May break, but may provide usable pieces.

Not as pretty as bacon's version, but it works for me.

^ Chef, is your BSD version of the info script on github somewhere? I think many people would find it useful.
