The Gnome palettes here tend to look much nicer on light backgrounds: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-terminal/-/blob/master/src/terminal-profile-editor.cc?ref_type=heads#L196 . At least in the sense that they're actually readable! It also helps that Gnome allows choosing the overall "scheme" (background/foreground colors) and "palette" (set of colors) independently. It doesn't look like there's a Konsole black-on-white scheme update in a decade, so it's not unreasonable to think it's due for an update: https://invent.kde.org/utilities/konsole/-/blob/master/data/color-schemes/BlackOnWhite.colorscheme?ref_type=heads Another option might be adding a new scheme you like to the KDE Store (which is free): https://store.kde.org/browse?cat=462&ord=rating Or you could pick an existing scheme from there. Unforunately few of the currently available schemes are light-colored, and tbh I find them mostly pretty weird. But some, like 'Github Light' are quite nice: https://store.kde.org/p/1574065/ |
Created attachment 159911 [details] screenshot SUMMARY See the attached screenshot, showing the black on white color scheme, one of the default installed color schemes. No idea who actually provides the color schemes, if it comes from Konsole or some component, or from the distro, but I'll try here first. Some of the colors are pretty bad, particularly color 4, which is a barely readable light yellow on white, and color 8, which is white on white.
