Junio: Thanks for giving b4 review a try -- and this is definitely not a triviality. A lot of it is "rapidly prototyped" with colours that made sense on my dark-mode terminal using textual's default pallette and I've not tried it with other colour schemes. > Is there a monochrome option that is usable by color challenged > people? There is now. The review TUI is built on top of Textual, which ships a built-in 16-colour ANSI theme that defers all colour choices to the terminal emulator. You can enable it by setting: export TEXTUAL_THEME=textual-ansi With this, the TUI will use your terminal's own palette instead of hardcoded RGB values, so it should work well with any colour scheme you've configured for your accessibility needs -- whether that's high-contrast, monochrome, or a palette tuned for colour vision deficiency. You'll still find some colours here and there -- please let me know if they are a distraction and I'll think of better ways to make that work better in monochrome modes. You'll need the latest b4 master for this. Best wishes, -- KR
