It’s been seven years since I’ve had a set of terminal colours that I’ve liked, but I think I’ve finally worked out the colour scheme I used to have back then. Here’s what I’m using now:
| Palette element | Colour | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Text | #A4CC28 | Lime |
| Background | #283328 | Sea green |
| Black 1 | #000000 | |
| Black 2 | #555555 | |
| Red 1 | #AA0000 | Slightly desaturated crimson |
| Red 2 | #FF5555 | Erm, pink… |
| Green 1 | #555555 | |
| Green 2 | #62C462 | |
| Yellow 1 | #BF6000 | Orange brown |
| Yellow 2 | #FFBF00 | Orange yellow |
| Blue 1 | #005FBF | Dark sky blue |
| Blue 2 | #9BAEC2 | Light sky blue, with a dash of grey |
| Magenta 1 | #AA00AA | |
| Magenta 2 | #FF55FF | |
| Cyan 1 | #008080 | |
| Cyan 2 | #66CCCC | |
| White 1 | #808080 | |
| White 2 | #FFFFFF |
Here’s what it looks like. The screen shot is of Vim with the koehler colour scheme running in a terminal displaying some of the templating code in AFK:
