The pygmentize coloring style changed to "rrt" with less-661 (see bug 924627). "rrt" looks very nice in terminals with black background, but is almost impossible to read on terminals with white background: Large parts (especially important parts) of the text are colored in a very light grey, which is almost indistinguishable from the white background (it's even worse during presentations with beamers in well illuminated rooms). * Could you please make the style easily configurable? (e.g. by introducing an environment variable for it?) * Could you please document (e.g. as an emerge info) how to list the available styles and how to set a style? * Could you either choose a default which works reasonably well on both white *and* black background terminals, or perhaps introduce a USE variable to set the default for either white or black background?
Yeah, a very fair set of requests. I was wondering about this earlier.
In my case I switched to "igor" style, and it looks nice to me for black and white backgrounds
Hi! I would simply switch to "igor" by default. I am using it in all my maintained machines for some weeks and nobody complained (and I have users with white and black backgrounds) Thanks
