Gregory's Server@pid_eins wow the auto coloring and title changes would be really annoying. The config to disable it seems to be not user friendly, too:
--background=switch
Whatever background means in this case and why it’s correct to set to switch seems like arbitrary to me.
The tool itself seems to be indeed great!

 @amanzer @sszuecs oh. i didn't grok @sszuecs's comment, I was sure there was some misunderstanding but I couldn't figure out how! But your explanation explains the misunderstanding perfectly! So yes, the switch is called "--background=" and you can override the background color with that, or you can assign an empty string to disable the tinting altogether. @pid_eins, like https://gist.github.com/JBlond/2fea43a3049b38287e5e9cefc87b2124/da3a76d981e3ee95d00f14db07975e088a02a311#regular-colors? Why is that preferable to hex codes with alpha channels and all that goodness? @rokejulianlockhart because this is about terminal output, and terminals eat ansi sequences and have no concept of alpha channels? @pid_eins @rokejulianlockhart well, modern terminals have true color support at least... would've been nice over the plain ansi number but I get it that querying the cap might be annoying.

@sszuecs @pid_eins I think it's the switch that is called `--background=`. I don't think the thread described the different settings you can give to --background.
