terminal colors #42

Open jdietrch opened 3 years ago

jdietrch commented 3 years ago

I'm running tasklite in an xterm, which supports 256 colors. Is there a way to specify colors other than the 8 ANSI terminal colors in tasklite's config.yaml? If this is not currently possible, then this issue is a feature request to add 256-color support. I think this would be good because the 8 ANSI terminal colors is a rather limited selection.

There had been an issue with arbitrary RGB colors with the library I'm using. But I think there was an update to the library in the meantime. I'll have to check again.

That would be great if arbitrary RGB colors are already possible! In that case, perhaps you could add a little section to the documentation telling what can be done in those lines in the config file that specify colors. I have already tried putting a hex code instead of the color name, but it didn't work.
