colors VS rich

Did anyone actually send Apple a memo? At https://github.com/termstandard/colors#not-supporting-trueco... there are pointers to where people have asked, when they have. There's nothing for Terminal.App.

(That's the big push that I mentioned. Going since January 2014.)

I'm fairly certain that isn't the issue, Emacs in the terminal but not in client mode (right) has absolutely no issues, and all the colors match the theme in GUI mode. To make absolutely sure I've also run these truecolor tests and they all run fine. I've also tried reloading the theme, but the issue persists.

Even if you can pair it with the right server and settings for 24-bit truecolor, it may not be possible to get all the features you want within a single client. The best you can hope for is that each client-server combo you want to support falls back to something that looks decent.

I finally found a decent source of information:

The most obvious case of missing support is macOS’s Terminal.app. Years ago I imagine you could theoretically at least query the colours by some side channel, but sandboxing will doubtless have prevented that. And maybe it does support the querying, which to my mind is the more important of the two pieces of functionality when it comes to accessibility.

If PuTTY supports truecolor, try some tests from this https://github.com/termstandard/colors, next question is which solarized plugin are you using? It matters, because they have different options you can tweak. By far the easiest in terms of compatibility is https://github.com/lifepillar/vim-solarized8

have you tried this

most terminals , including CMD on Windows 10, apparently.

There is an open issue [1] on GitHub to make it more modular and get rid of markdown and syntax highlighting but I have no hope for rich to get more minimal.

I hope he doesn't mind, but the creator of Rich and Textualize is a good guy, and Scottish: https://www.willmcgugan.com/about/

They keep getting improved error messaging and this is one of my favorite features. But I'd love if we could get some real rich text. Idk if anyone else uses rich, but it has infected all my programs now. Not just to print with colors, but because it makes debugging so much easier. Not just print(f"{var=}") but the handler[0,1]. Color is so important to these types of things and so is formatting. Plus, the progress bars are nice and have almost completely replaced tqdm for me[2]. They're just easier and prettier.

[2] Side note: does anyone know how to get these properly working when using DDP with pytorch? I get flickering when using this and I think it is actually down to a pytorch issue and how they're handling their loggers and flushing the screen. I know pytorch doesn't want to depend on rich, but hey, pip uses rich so why shouldn't everyone?

colors.crumb extends Crumb with basic terminal styling functions and RGB, HEX, ANSI conversion functions. It is in the realm of JavaScript's chalk and Python's rich but slightly more functional 😉.

I am working on a new python project and one of the first things I added was https://github.com/Textualize/rich because of how easy it is to make things look good in the terminal.

I am not rewriting anything but I'd love to have a library like `rich` in Rust: https://github.com/textualize/rich

Add some cool-looking stuff to your output with rich.

You might consider taking inspiration from the rich module. In particular, I like how rich supports inline color theming which seems much more cumbersome in your framework, requiring the use of context managers as well as familiarity with how your framework structures color objects. Other than that though, I'm impressed!

Today I released coBib 4.0, my console bibliography manager written in Python, which now uses rich and textual to provide a cohesive and modern user experience in both its CLI and TUI.
