Clarify Text Styles #6

Closed pigmonkey closed 5 years ago

pigmonkey commented 5 years ago

Looking at the output of --help, it is difficult to discern what the various text style values (text, text-primary, text-secondary, text-highlight, etc) refer to.

When I first launched fltrdr on a text file I found the behaviour of highlighting the character under the cursor to be distracting. I wanted to highlight the whole word. Through trial and error I discovered that the property I wanted was text-primary, but it would have been helpful if the documentation was more specific on this point.

Thanks for letting me know, I'll try and make the descriptions of each style more specific.

Some more specific descriptions have been added in the latest version. Could you let me know if they help clarify the commands purpose? If not, what could be changed?

Yes, these look much more helpful. Thanks!
