windows-terminal's Issues

Folders looks not good

files look good, unlike folders

Hello! The background color of the Terminal tab cannot be changed, how did you do it?

Hello! After I follow your instructions in Terminal_Win10_1.15.3465, the background color of the Terminal tab cannot be changed. How did you do it?

Mindight Commander is unreadable with this theme

This theme does not provide enough contrast for console based gui apps like mc and many others.

This is how it looks with catppuccin theme:

This is how it looks with look-a-like dracula theme:

I'd suggest to darken the bg fill color a bit and lighten the main fg color maybe?

Change selection highlight to surface2

A PR was just opened to include this in atomcorp/themes#86.

The selection highlight in that PR differs from our repository, it uses rosewater as the cursor colour, and surface2 as the selection colour,

Would be nice if we could change this so "upstream" is the same.

Thanks to @caarlos0 for implementing a fixed version of the theme!

More appropriate colors

While in Latte the contrast is fine, for Mocha, Macchiato and Frappe it is very low.
The colours used are

Flavour	Surface 1	Surface 2
🌿 Mocha
🌺 Macchiato
🪴 Frappé

For reference, the default "Campbell" theme uses #0C0C0C for dark black, and #767676 for the bright variant. If we were to find a colour pair with similar darkness in the palette it would be Mantle and Overlay 0, respectively.

Flavour	Mantle	Overlay 0
🌿 Mocha
🌺 Macchiato
🪴 Frappé

In addition it should be mentioned that, the "Bright White" is darker than the "Dark White".

missing commas in the json files

Hello,
all the flavour.json files are missing a comma "," at the end of the file. Currently it's

{
  "name": "Catppuccin Macchiato",

  "cursorColor": "#F4DBD6",
  "selectionBackground": "#5B6078",

  "background": "#24273A",
  "foreground": "#CAD3F5",

  "black": "#494D64",
  "red": "#ED8796",
  "green": "#A6DA95",
  "yellow": "#EED49F",
  "blue": "#8AADF4",
  "purple": "#F5BDE6",
  "cyan": "#8BD5CA",
  "white": "#B8C0E0",

  "brightBlack": "#5B6078",
  "brightRed": "#ED8796",
  "brightGreen": "#A6DA95",
  "brightYellow": "#EED49F",
  "brightBlue": "#8AADF4",
  "brightPurple": "#F5BDE6",
  "brightCyan": "#8BD5CA",
  "brightWhite": "#A5ADCB"
}

but it should be

{
  "name": "Catppuccin Macchiato",

  "cursorColor": "#F4DBD6",
  "selectionBackground": "#5B6078",

  "background": "#24273A",
  "foreground": "#CAD3F5",

  "black": "#494D64",
  "red": "#ED8796",
  "green": "#A6DA95",
  "yellow": "#EED49F",
  "blue": "#8AADF4",
  "purple": "#F5BDE6",
  "cyan": "#8BD5CA",
  "white": "#B8C0E0",

  "brightBlack": "#5B6078",
  "brightRed": "#ED8796",
  "brightGreen": "#A6DA95",
  "brightYellow": "#EED49F",
  "brightBlue": "#8AADF4",
  "brightPurple": "#F5BDE6",
  "brightCyan": "#8BD5CA",
  "brightWhite": "#A5ADCB"
},

All the flavourTheme.json files are also missing one comma, just like in flavour.json it's located at the end.
Current:

{
  "name": "Catppuccin Macchiato",
  "tab": {
    "background": "#24273AFF",
    "showCloseButton": "always",
    "unfocusedBackground": null
  },
  "tabRow": {
    "background": "#1E2030FF",
    "unfocusedBackground": "#181926FF"
  },
  "window": {
    "applicationTheme": "dark"
  }
}

Should be:

{
  "name": "Catppuccin Macchiato",
  "tab": {
    "background": "#24273AFF",
    "showCloseButton": "always",
    "unfocusedBackground": null
  },
  "tabRow": {
    "background": "#1E2030FF",
    "unfocusedBackground": "#181926FF"
  },
  "window": {
    "applicationTheme": "dark"
  }
},

You should either add the comma or add a comment informing that you might want a comma if you want more than 1 theme.
Thank you for your time.

Actually different bright colors

For the all the colors like red, green and blue, the bright version and the normal version are the same, it would be good to be able to have the colors be different. I haven't found the pallete to be very good for this because it lacks some contrast between some colors, making a bright version of green that isn't closer to blue impossible to find, so for my custom config I used colors from other flavors ('im using mocha).

Combine installation files into a single JSON Fragment Extension

Since version 1.7, Windows Terminal added support for JSON Fragment Extensions

• Windows Terminal version 1.7 Release
• Windows Terminal version 1.7 Blog post

This allows for a user to put a single file into a local config directory that extends the default configuration JSON.

Pros:

This could streamline the installation to only moving a folder instead of copying and pasting from multiple files, also Windows users are more used to drag and droping instead of editing config files.

Cons:

As "Themes" is a relatively new feature to Windows Terminal, it is not yet implemented in JSON Fragment Extensions, their inclusion seem to be coming until version 1.20 (Source).
This could either mean we can only streamline half of the process at the time, or complicate the installation more by introducing a second method.

I'll add a PR to this issue with the schemes as a JSON Fragment Extension and we can leave it cooking until v1.20 releases and I can add the schemes to the fragment too.

In the meantime I'll leave this issue for consideration.
