  • Is it possible to highlight nested code using the background color in nested rectangles?

    The orange border could be a nice addition, but I'd like to remain compatible with simple ANSI terminal and just use the background color, with a color theme and a black-and-white theme like indent-rainbow while preserving syntax highlighting in the foreground.

    Colors are surprisingly helpful!

    Vim+Python might be more popular than Emacs+Lisp, so here's my rainbow mode plugin to help with Tabs: https://github.com/csdvrx/indent-rainbow

    > Some people like it bold, some people like the color to be intensified instead when using `SGR 1` (which is responsible for making font intensified/bold).

    Indeed, and the right solution is a config options, just as was done in Windows Terminal, since nobody is wrong: it's just a matter of preferences!

    The right technical way of handling preferences is offering more choices to the users, with some sane default that will satisfy most users.

    Personally, I love italics (I use vim and I want comments shown in italics, and I make an heavy use of bold+italics, cf https://github.com/csdvrx/indent-rainbow/blob/main/after/syn... ) but I would not want to force this option to people who don't want italics, for their own reasons that are none of my business (actually, if they reasons are good enough, it may cause me to change the default choices, but I would never remove the user freedom to make such choices in the first place)

    IMHO that's the key difference between MacOS/iOS/Gnome/new school linux on one side (fewer freedoms) and Windows/KDE/old school Linux (more freedoms)
