Hi, I feel like a Republican Senator suddenly getting calls about changing his mind about AHCA…
I certainly don’t mind adding a short-hand flag for "-f white -b black"
(note that you can use named colors there).
I tried it briefly right now. One annoying thing – with my setup at
least – is that the text field in the bottom is still in the colors of
my usual theme, which has a bright background.
The best way forward would be to figure out how to get rid of the
separate text field altogether and simply edit the large text (hiding
the caret after a short timeout).
The argument that an alias is impractical cannot be brought in favor of
a certain setting (unless there is a very clear majority for one
particular flavor); it is just moving the onus of doing this work to
other people. And why is it unfeasible to configure your 30 computer or
so? Don’t we all have our ways of shoving our ~/.bashrc to our many
users and computers?
~ $ grep alias projekte/environment/skel/.bashrc
alias ls='ls --color=auto'
alias grep='grep --color=auto'
Should sm start to read a configuration file?
I am playing with the idea (mostly independent) of adding Ctrl-I as a
shortcut to invert the colors. You can use that to flash the audience,
or to drum rhythmically to music…
