Terminal Colour Scheme Screenshots

smurnjiff · 2008-07-16 18:38:14

Using this handy script from http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prompt-HOWTO/x329.html here is a picture of my default color scheme.

#!/bin/bash
#
#   This file echoes a bunch of color codes to the 
#   terminal to demonstrate what's available.  Each 
#   line is the color code of one forground color,
#   out of 17 (default + 16 escapes), followed by a 
#   test use of that color on all nine background 
#   colors (default + 8 escapes).
#

T='gYw'   # The test text

echo -e "\n                 40m     41m     42m     43m\
     44m     45m     46m     47m";

for FGs in '    m' '   1m' '  30m' '1;30m' '  31m' '1;31m' '  32m' \
           '1;32m' '  33m' '1;33m' '  34m' '1;34m' '  35m' '1;35m' \
           '  36m' '1;36m' '  37m' '1;37m';
  do FG=${FGs// /}
  echo -en " $FGs \033[$FG  $T  "
  for BG in 40m 41m 42m 43m 44m 45m 46m 47m;
    do echo -en "$EINS \033[$FG\033[$BG  $T  \033[0m";
  done
  echo;
done
echo

I'm interested in seeing what other people use as their default color scheme: post yours!

Hi guys..
do you think this can be converted to an .Xdefault color scheme some how?

on this link, change to "all blue" "high" at the top:

are you guys saying there's a way to change the default colors that get displayed in bash terminals? I added some of the examples here to my .Xdefaults file and restarted X, but I get the same colors as before. how do I change them?

->> n/m that was aterm. it works in urxvt. cool! never knew that.

Nice collection.
I have been meaning to try out a white background colorscheme. My previous attempts at this made me blind for days, which I find really odd because, well, Firefox for example is just fine with white background. So I'll try some of those out.

Edit: I'm blind again! Something about white background in URxvt that just makes me feel queasy. And it's not (just) about colors being harder to read, I even tried only black on white.

I thought about using this one: http://phraktured.net/terminal-colors/t … fteen.html

Then I realized I'd be cleaning vomit off my keyboard much more regularly than I do now.

babypuncher · 2008-07-18 10:04:05

I don't mind a white (with a little less contrast) terminal at all, but have never been able to make urxvt's transparency work with it, despite it working with every other background color I've randomly picked to test.

georgia_tech_swagger · 2008-07-25 19:25:39

For those who use/have used Gentoo and like its color scheme for console, I have a package in AUR called gentoo-bashrc which provides Gentoo's bashrc file (and thus console color scheme).

How do you get a line like that?
Is there a place where you can download terminal themes?
