• Purple Color Code

    From dreamchipper@21:1/228 to All on Fri Oct 4 12:56:54 2024
    Im trying to get a purple color code in my menus, but I dont see one listed in the docs. But when I use `./mystic -cfg` it uses a purple color for its menus. Is there a way to put in a custom color code to use?

    Perhaps the word you're looking for is "magenta".

    Nope, tried that and its not quite the right color I'm looking for

    It's as close as you're going to get, I'm afraid - unless these codes have branched out into wider colour spaces for terminals that support eg. 256.

    I suppose there's shaded blocks with a mix of different fg/bg you could try.
