XFCE4 support in 4bit Terminal Color Scheme Designer

Hi. I'm a developer of http://ciembor.github.com/4bit. I just wanna announce that few minutes ago I added an export to the XFCE4 Terminal's terminalrc config file! Enjoy and let me know if there are any problems (you may add a bug report on GitHub).

Thanks for attention:).

Nice :-)

I would just suggest that you put some real-life content (like a corlorful ls or grep command).
Because, I adjusted some colors nice and cool but once in my terminal and run a ls command, it is not nice as expected ... The colors are still the same but their ratio is not the same.

Xfce is NOT Xubuntu. Bugs in Xubuntu don't mean that Xfce is buggy ...

Re: XFCE4 support in 4bit Terminal Color Scheme Designer

This is awesome except that when I look up the default terminalrc file (in ~/.config/xfce4/terminal/terminalrc) I have the following format:

[Configuration]
ColorCursor=#ffffff
ColorPalette=#000000;#0b4193;#0b4193;#0b4193;#0b4193;#0b4193;#0b4193;#d3d3d3;#2b2b2b;#6b93d7;#4fa1e5;#5da1d7;#5d85f3;#6b85e5;#4f93f3;#ffffff
MiscAlwaysShowTabs=FALSE
MiscBell=FALSE
MiscBordersDefault=TRUE
MiscCursorBlinks=FALSE
MiscCursorShape=TERMINAL_CURSOR_SHAPE_BLOCK
MiscDefaultGeometry=80x24
MiscInheritGeometry=FALSE
MiscMenubarDefault=TRUE
MiscMouseAutohide=FALSE
MiscToolbarDefault=FALSE
MiscConfirmClose=TRUE
MiscCycleTabs=TRUE
MiscTabCloseButtons=TRUE
MiscTabCloseMiddleClick=TRUE
MiscTabPosition=GTK_POS_TOP
MiscHighlightUrls=TRUE

Further, when I try to change input the custom configuration text from your web-application's terminalrc, it ignores it. Did xfce4 change their ColorPalette keyword format, possibly? Could you have your application (which is excellent, I think) reflect this?

Thank you for feedback, hopefully I get notification emails from this forum (issue on GitHub could be better idea;)). I did some research and it looks, that someone changed this in November.

    Bundle palette colors into a single string.
    
    This is quicker in the code and saves a bunch of properties.

I'll fix it ASAP, but I'm in the middle of an exam session, so I don't know when exactly.

Re: XFCE4 support in 4bit Terminal Color Scheme Designer

I reported an issue on github for you as well. Hope it helps. I don't use GitHib much... Yet. I'm impressed by your skill at finding that change.

Good luck on your exams.
