FEATURE REQUEST for a NEW PLUGIN. I would love to use micro for everything but there are occasions that I need a color preview.
I recently installed neovim and had to learn installing plugins to get what I wanted.

To accomplish what I am looking for would be to have a plugin that behaves similar to https://github.com/RRethy/vim-hexokinase I use the let g:Hexokinase_highlighters = ['background'] for my color editing.

I have also been using the gui text editor, LiteXL which has a lua script as a plugin called colorpreview.lua.

-1 from me. This is out of scope for a text editor, get your terminal emulator to support it

drewgrif commented 2 years ago

I should have titled this as a Plug in request.

a micro editor cant includes too many colorthemes, write a plugin if u need it

this would be great as a plugin, you should make an issue over at the forked up-to-date plugin channel

It would be more than great, very helpful for config files.
