NAME

       vivid - LS_COLORS manager with multiple themes

SYNOPSIS

        vivid [OPTION]

DESCRIPTION

       Generator  for  the  LS_COLORS  (environment  variable) controlling the color voice of ls,
       tree, fd, bfs, duste and many other tools. It uses a YAML  configuration  format  for  the
       file type database and core themes.

       Unlike  dircolors,  the database and themes are organized in different files.  This allows
       users to choose and customize color themes  independently  from  the  collection  of  file
       extensions.  Instead of using cryptic ANSI escape codes, colors can be specified in RRGBBB
       format and will be converted to ANSI truecolor (24-bit) codes or  8-bit  codes  for  older
       terminal emulators.

USAGE:

       vivid <SUBCOMMAND>

OPTIONS:

       -m, --color-mode <mode>
              Type of ANSI colors to be used [default: 24-bit] [possible values: 8-bit, 24-bit]

       -d, --database <path>
              Path to filetypes database (filetypes.yml)

       -h, --help
              Prints help information

       -V, --version
              Prints version information

SUBCOMMANDS:

       generate
              Generate a LS_COLORS expression

       preview
              Preview a given theme

       themes Prints list of available themes

       help   Prints this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)

EXAMPLES:

       Choose  a  color  theme  (for  example:  molokai).   Then, add this to your shells RC file
       (~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc, …): export LS_COLORS="$(vivid generate molokai)"

       Note: Terminals without true color support By default,  vivid  runs  in  true  color  mode
       (24-bit).  If  you don't have a terminal that supports 24-bit colors, use the --color-mode
       8-bit option when running vivid. This will  generate  interpolated  8-bit  colors:  export
       LS_COLORS="$(vivid -m 8-bit generate molokai)"
