Watch theme file for changes #4895

Describe the solution you'd like?

I'm currently using warp with a theme generated from pywal. For those that don't know, pywal is a tool that takes an image as input and, after running an algorithm on it, extracts some of the most important colors of that image. These colors can then be used to generate themes for different applications in your system, so everything looks cohesive color-wise.

This is usually accomplished by taking a template file that uses pywal placeholders and replacing those by the actual colors. Most software provides one of two options to update running instances with the new themes:

These generally just trigger a theme update taking the new colors in, some do transition, some do it instant.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Not really, mostly a convenience thing, but I gravitate towards tools that allow me to do this. I'd look for a different terminal.

Thanks for this feature request @Almamu. Warp does update the theme previews, but not if it is the active theme unless you view the theme settings page.
