User Themes

[ceuk]

Using the existing patterns in config.py and colors.py implement a new config section: "theme" that allows users to define the terminal color using the ncurses constant names. These config values should be plugged into colors.py (replacing the hardcoded values) if they are present.

e.g.

[theme]
progress_bar_fg = "COLOR_GREEN"
progress_bar_bg = "COLOR_BLACK"
border_fg = "COLOR_WHITE"
border_bg = "COLOR_BLACK"
border_active_fg = "COLOR_YELLOW"
# ...etc

We will also need to define a set of themeable colors as currently the colors file and use thereof isn't very organised (Basically, we need to make sure that we have a pair defined for each semantic UI element: e.g. progress bar etc - and that we update the pairs being used by these elements accordingly)

Hey! glad you're still around! This project is awesome and your code has been wonderful to work with. Honestly, I was expecting the usual "other dev's code is hard to read" but your python/curses is legitimately fun to read and tweak.

I've implemented the theme engine, as well as transparency (if the terminal has it) and x_2256_colors on top. see

I'm working on setting up a config updater for those who are already using spotui so that the update to the new config with more values goes by smoothly.
