color syntax for task details

Open xarthurx opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Description

When editing the specific tasks, there's a color syntax for different sections, parameters: image

However, the main TUI only allows color syntax for the Task content area, not the bottom task details.

Color code the details would be helpful to allow the user to identify important information more quickly. For instance, using separate color for Description, status, project, all time-related info, etc.

A more complete but harder-to-implement possibility is to allow color themes settings. (Perhaps separate the setting for taskwarrior-tui from the taskrc file, and use its own init file, when the number of settings exposed to the user grows bigger.)

Great idea! Relevant context here: https://github.com/kdheepak/taskwarrior-tui/issues/60#issuecomment-800553421. Better color support is being tracked here: https://github.com/kdheepak/taskwarrior-tui/issues/10.
