A big +1 against dark blue on black. > Depends on your terminal color scheme, of course. I think this is pretty > readable: There are console applications that use dark blue as a background color, such as Midnight Commander. In your scheme, dark blue is so light that MC will be unreadable. Choosing a shade of dark blue that is light enough for use as foreground color against black *and* at the same time dark enough for all 14 other basic terminal colors to be readable against it is quite a nontrivial task. I’m pretty convinced it has no solution within WCAG Level AA contrast ratio guidelines even for large fonts (minimum contrast ratio 3:1), to say nothing of normal fonts (minimum 4.5:1). https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/#contrast-minimum -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ledger" group.
