`fzf_theme` Script Usage

Overview

The fzf_theme script configures the fzf color theme based on the system's appearance mode (Light or Dark). It is compatible with macOS and Linux systems, adjusting the fzf theme colors to ensure optimal visibility and aesthetics.

Usage

Basic Usage

To automatically detect the system's appearance mode and apply the corresponding fzf theme, run:

./fzf_theme.sh

Custom Appearance Mode

To override the automatic detection and set a specific appearance mode, provide either Light or Dark as an argument:

./fzf_theme.sh Light

./fzf_theme.sh Dark

Example

To use the script's output for configuring fzf, you can capture the FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS and use it as follows:

export FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS="$(./fzf_theme.sh)"
fzf --preview "echo 'Preview content'"

System Compatibility

macOS: Detects system appearance using the defaults command.
Linux (GNOME): Detects appearance using the gsettings command.

If the system is not recognized or detection fails, the script defaults to Dark mode.

Dependencies

fzf: Ensure fzf is installed and configured in your environment to utilize the output of this script.

Notes

For persistent use, consider adding the script to your shell initialization file to automatically set the fzf theme in new terminal sessions.
