  • Terminal app built over WebGPU, WebAssembly and Rust

    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.)

  • emacsclient in terminal doesn't show theme properly (Doom Emacs)
    1 project | /r/emacs | 26 Jan 2023
    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.
  • Is it possible to use 24-bit ANSI colors in Python?

    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
