Improve dark mode toggling experience

scottmuc commented 1 year ago

Currently, toggling between light and dark modes requires changing it via ClickOps and a shell function in the terminal. This results in inconsistent terminal and OS modes as well as 2 places to go to change the settings. Some of this is described in https://github.com/scottmuc/infrastructure/issues/50#issuecomment-1435529998.

Things I want to improve:

[x] Toggle OS light and dark mode with a keyboard shortcut
[x] Couple OS color scheme with terminal color scheme
[x] Replace alcritty-colorscheme with custom scripting
[x] Adjust light theme bold/white with a color that doesn't match the background
[x] Do something with git-delta

At some point, the nvim color scheme broke while implementing this.

[x] Fix neovim color selection
