Determining what theme to use

[wf5w]

I got tired of trying random themes to make most of my files work, still not all do, but I now have most files working good with the theme I chose. So how did I settle on a theme? I wrote this script, and tested it with different files to see which themes worked best.

#!/usr/bin/env bash

if [ -z "$1" ]; then

echo usage: dobatthemes filename
exit 1
fi

bat --list-themes > bat_themes.txt

while read t; do

echo theme $t; sleep 4
bat --theme "$t" "$1"
done < bat_themes.txt

rm bat_themes.txt
