tsty 0.0.5.3

A simple command-line utility for changing your terminal colors

tsty

tsty short for "terminal style"

A simple command-line utility for quickly switching your terminal colors and styles

Example usage

# Change background to green
tsty bg green

## by default, the tsty command runs the `bg` subcommand, so this works too:
tsty green

## you can also pass in rgb values, in order of: r g b 
tsty 0 100

# Change text color — both bold and normal — to orange
tsty text orange

# change bold text color to red
tsty text red --bold

# change cursor to lavender
tsty cursor lavender

# list commands and colors
tsty list

Current status

• Allows user to change macOS Terminal background, text, and cursor colors

TODOS

• Add ability to switch themes
• Make it compatible with Windows Powershell/WSL
• Make it compatible with Linux terminals
• Make separate color presets for background/cursor and text, as the former generally needs to be darker and the latter more brighter
• make aliases, e.g. tsty t for tsty text
• finish writing tests
  • throw error when user has more than 4 values for color argument
  • throw error when user has more than 1 non-numerical value for color argument
• Replace verbose-by-default with --verbose opt-in flag (i.e. deprecate --quiet)
