Cursor not showing on navigation #26

Open rgoomar opened 9 years ago

rgoomar commented 9 years ago

When I am typing, I see the box cursor. But, when I try to navigate, I can't tell what I am navigating to. I don't see any cursor or indicator of where I am at in my todo list. That is probably the only thing hindering me from using this right now.

What colors are you using on your terminal? It's probably that the background of the selected item isn't obvious with the background color setting you are using. Try adding your own color scheme to ~/.todotxt-machinerc with this content:

[settings]
file = ~/todo.txt
colorscheme = myawesometheme

[colorscheme-myawesometheme]
plain=h250
selected=,h238
header=h250,h235
header_todo_count=h39,h235
header_todo_pending_count=h228,h235
header_todo_done_count=h156,h235
header_file=h48,h235
dialog_background=,h248
dialog_color=,h240
dialog_shadow=,h238
footer=h39,h235
search_match=h222,h235
completed=h59
context=h39
project=h214
creation_date=h135
due_date=h161
priority_a=h167
priority_b=h173
priority_c=h185
priority_d=h77
priority_e=h80
priority_f=h62

and change the selected=,h238 line to a different color like selected=,h33

Here's a list of all the color numbers you can use: http://www.calmar.ws/vim/256-xterm-24bit-rgb-color-chart.html
