Hi Allan,
I have become old and grumpy since then!
Okay, point taken: I did let it drag on a bit. It wasn't all my fault, though: I got sick of waiting for those other three patches to be merged in.
Lets start with what is already justified by what we already have in pacman with the aim of improving consistency of our current colour scheme. Further additions will need to be discussed separately.
package names - bold (in some places...) groups - blue repos - magenta versions - green
So, I'd like separate patches:
-Si/-Qi: just those changes -S group dialog: just those changes
Righto, you're the boss. I've just created a patch for those switches alone; I will post it to this thread soon. I'll get back to you about the other colours at a later date.
-Qo/-Fo can have the same done and anywhere else that is currently not consistent.
As far as I can tell, the following switches need better colourisation. Let me know if you disagree with any of this *before* I go ahead and create the patch :-).
- -Dk, -Dkk: the package name (but not the dependency) should be in bold, rather than quoted
Colour adds nothing here
- -Qc: the package name should be in bold, rather than quoted
or here...
- -Qg, -Sg: the group name should be in blue; the package name should be in bold
or here... You don't need colour to distinguish between left and right columns.
- -Qk, -Qkk: the package name should be in bold
Only errors/warnings are highlighted. Adding more colour hides the important information
- -Qo, -Fo: the package name should be in bold; the version number should be in green
I said this was fine above.
- -Qq, -Fq, -Sq: the package name should (possibly) be in bold
Not sure what package name you are referring to.
- -T: the package name should (possibly) be in bold
No colour here ever.
