A lot more freedom choosing terminal.app colors
December 4, 2008
Very quick ‘before and after’.
What you can change on terminal.app’s color menu is pretty pointless if you can’t change whatever is beeing “force” fed into it. so here’s the trick:
Download SIMBL
Copy this plugin into ~/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins
Open terminal.app, go the the screen where you chose the colors and now you have a button there that reads “more”, click on it and go wild.
Before:

After:

Pardon me for being daft, but I don’t see a difference…

you don’t see the difference between the blue font on top and on the bottom?
The reds are a bit more pale too.

Oh… right… it is more erm… pale, yes.
Sorry, was looking out for a change in color or something.

Don’t be rude!
Compare the readability of the blue!
This is just awesome! The “unreadable blue” has been a pain for my eyes for ages.
