Windows colours too dark

Open Mecanik opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

Would you be able to change the colors used on windows ? They are all the "dark" version of them, and it's pretty much eye killing...

The brighter versions are much more visible, as pointed out here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4053837/colorizing-text-in-the-console-with-c

Or alternatively, and easier way to specify your own colour rather than using std:cout ?

Actually, I believe it's already using the brightest version, the only exception being red, which looks better in my opinion.

Not really, this is how it looks on windows: https://prnt.sc/stfy0m

Some are bright, some are dark, very confusing to the eye.

Wow, it does look horrible on your screenshot. Here it is on my Windows 10. image

Are you using Windows 7? Try changing colors.h:46 to 12 and let me know if that looks better.

Yeah I told you, don't know why thought as it's default win 10.
