Inverted current channel tab #14

Discussion

This might just be personal preference, but I dislike the way of highlighting the current channel by inverting the colors, as it is done currently. This is a pet peeve of mine in general, having such a glaring element.

current way

I've patched my fork to use bold instead. It's less readable but more aesthetic IMO:

What does the community think? What about underline?

I think it's fine as-is. I've gone ahead and added $BIRCH_STATUS which you can set to a sequence for highlighting.

Example: BIRCH_STATUS='\e[31;1m' birch
