Xresources/Xdefaults colors

[DebianJoe]

@frank, those are really nice! I especially like the "Year of the Horse." Would you be cool with those being shared in our xcolors git, and ported to other terms?

[dkeg]

dude, very nice. Thanks for sharing.

[franksinistra]

i certainly don't mind at all! Thanks

[DebianJoe]

...then I'll have the xcolor_code and st patches up in about 30 minutes. ;)
Thanks frank!

@dkeg: if you get time, would you like to add them to the .png section using whatever color script you normally use? I just have a bunch of ansi-escapes in a script for showing off colors.

[franksinistra]

your welcome sir darth maul!

Ok, diffs for the above two themes pushed.

Also, Pids offered up an awk rewrite of my sed script. We're both having issues with some of the themes being formatted totally different (such as solarized), but with that being said, the awk script provides much more clean output. I'm adding it as /xcolors/scripts/fbgen_pids_mix. For our themes, I'll make sure that we have working scripts. For any created using the existing scripts, then I think I'll leave it up to the user to sanitize their own work. It's simply not reasonable to try to compensate for all edge cases.

Also, fb-colors use ONLY a 16 color palette (it's a hex limitation...0-F), while most of the .Xresources actually use 18-19 (background, foreground, cursor). I have added 3 ints in the st diffs above 255 which allows us to define these in exactly the same manner, but I don't have a good solution for making it work on console. In fb-term, the background is set on launch, so no issue there. At a pure console, some of the themes are pretty difficult to read with some ncurses interfaces or if you use a colorizing shell (antigen's zsh colorized output, fish). Once I get caught up, I may have some requests for color re-tweaks for console use.

Thank you both for your additions, sounds reasonable.

As for those fbcolors that are pretty eye-tearing in a whiptail/dialog, the .dialogrc can be configured to _not_ use a colour (default BLUE) for the background. It's even possible to turn colours off completely. I might upload two .dialogrc files (one using the soothing black background, one being colorless) in a few minutes :)

[ivanovnegro]

^ Do it. And thanks for that clarification!

Edit:

Fantastic:

Code: Select all

To customize ~/.dialogrc, enter:
vi ~/.dialogrc
Turn on shadow dialog boxes
use_shadow = ON
Turn on color support ON
use_colors = ON
Change default blue background color to BLACK
screen_color = (CYAN,BLACK,ON)

well nearly, you see the '#'? means 'as root', it's a bit obscure, and a little confusing - to me I see it as commented out...
as opposed to '$ cmd' which means 'as user' ;)
