colortty's Issues

Fetch color scheme from the GitHub repo

• List color schemes
• Fetch and convert color scheme

YAML -> TOML (Alacritty V0.13.0)

Alacritty version 0.13.0 will be using TOML instead of YAML, are there plans to update the get command to show the new format?

Add Gogh color scheme support

Hi there. First of all thanks for this helpful utility tool. I don't know if you are willing to push forward and add some more functionality.

Add support for themes in Gogh

Support cursor colors

iTerm and Gogh color schemes have cursor colors.

Add support for alacritty-theme repo

Add support for getting themes from alacritty-theme repo

• colortty get deep:

  thread 'main' panicked at 'Invalid color component name: Alpha Component', src/color.rs:156:42
  note: Run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` for a backtrace.
  

Add support for applying converted scheme

Add an option to apply converted scheme to users terminal.

Add support for LS_COLORS through vivid

Another nice to have functionality for this tool might be
generating LS_COLORS colors compatible with theme. I personally use vivid for this. Generating vivid color theme file compatible with selected theme would be lovely. It is annoying when ls_colors settings and your terminal colors do not match.

Publish to Cargo

• Update the usage of hyper (reqwest)
• List up proper dependency versions

Replace the failure crate

It's deprecated now. anyhow or thiserror?

Show color palette of listed themes

When choosing a theme seeing color palette is important if theme is not a well known one. Add an option to show color palette on terminal. Pastel project would be helpful in implementing this.
