Change theme with keystroke? #4

Open dpo opened 6 years ago

dpo commented 6 years ago

This looks great. I'm wondering if something similar could be use to change theme altogether in a hyper window, say with a keybinding.

Thanks.

I'm not sure to understand what do you need. Can you explain further ?

Instead of changing the background of the current window based on a regexp, would it be possible to hit a key combination (say, C-h) and change the theme for the current window? I could have a default theme in ~/.hyper.js, say Solarized Dark, but would like certain windows to use Solarized Light.

This plugin let you change only some config properties. It could be possible to add some keymaps to force a profile but this is not exactly what you want I think.

Enabling/Disabling some themes could be really tricky. I think this is not possible at all due to Hyper architecture

It would already be good, I think.

I'll ask on the Hyper tracker. Thanks!

I don't know how to force a profile nicely. What will be the rules ? You force a profile and later prompt is matching a regexp for another profile. Should profile change ? If yes: what to do if profile is not matched anymore later? If no: how to remove this forced profile?

Do you use prompt pattern matching? Why is this not enough to set your profile automatically?
