Color output is unreadable on terminals using light backgrounds. about fq HOT 4 OPEN

Hey! yes that does not look great. Do you have any other tool that uses color that work better? wonder if it's possible to come up with colors codes that work nice for both dark/bright background hmm.

I found this jq issue jqlang/jq#495 that might give some inspiration.

If you want to help out and experiment you can do something like:

# see "fq -h options" for default
$ fq -o colors="array=white,dumpaddr=yellow,dumpheader=yellow+underline,error=brightred,false=yellow,index=white,null=brightblack,number=cyan,object=white,objectkey=brightblue,prompt_repl_level=brightblack,prompt_value=white,string=green,true=yellow,value=white" -o byte_colors="0-255=brightwhite,0=brightblack,32-126:9-13=white" ...

Color names are defined here https://github.com/wader/fq/blob/master/pkg/interp/ansi.jq and you can add more if needed.

What terminal and theme is this btw? trying to come up with a sane way to test things without to much effort. Something like this seems to work ok:
