Writing a program isn't a "do it over the weekend" kind of thing. "Why are you being so hateful?" is all anyone hears. And when asked why are you doing these things to the people who just want to make software with your stuff. Break things with zero consideration for those who actually use the toolkit. Because GTK devs feel that less is more for some stupid Apple loving reason.Īnd this is just more of the same with GTK devs. And for some features in gnome-terminal, the for shit way GTK4 works, you just simply CANNOT do some gnome-terminal features in GTK4. None of the devs who wrote gnome-terminal want to sit there and YET AGAIN write the terminal over to YET ANOTHER major version of GTK.

And the reason we get this new console with less features is because Gtk4 breaks things that there was no obvious reason to break outside, meh works better for "our vision". Meanwhile GNOME Console is a stripped down version of a regular terminal with even fewer options and configurations. Additionally, we are defaulting Terminal to use dark theme, rather than following the system theme," Cinnamon added.

"We have modified some of the default colors in Windows Terminal for a more cohesive appearance. The new version also adds updated default colors and sets the dark theme as the default theme instead of following the default Windows system theme. "Themes are only editable using the JSON file, but they will appear in the Theme dropdown in the settings UI." To add your own custom themes, you will have to install the app's latest version, Windows Terminal Preview 1.16.

"themes is a global property that can contain a variety of themes objects, which will appear in the Theme dropdown on the Appearance page of the settings UI," Windows Terminal Program Manager Kayla Cinnamon explained.

After adding a new theme config to the JSON file, it will automatically appear in the app's Settings > Appearance settings page. For now, users can only create themes by editing the Windows Terminal global JSON settings file to alter the background color of tabs and tab rows and choose between light and dark terminal window themes. An anonymous reader quotes a report from BleepingComputer: Microsoft released a new Windows Terminal version today that adds a long-awaited feature, making it possible to create and use custom themes.
