iTerm 2 - script to change theme depending on Mac OS dark mode

How to use

In iTerm2, in the menu bar go to Scripts > Manage > New Python Script

Select Basic. Select Long-Running Daemon

Give the script a decent name (I chose auto_dark_mode.py)

Save and open the script in your editor of choice.

🙌 Drone

Drone prettier

What this does

  • makes the console full width by default
  • makes the left column wider
  • auto clicks the "view more" button
  • adds in CSS classes for colour
  • adds the correct CSS to display build logs in a more sane way

How to publish a new version of the recorder

How to publish a new version of the recorder

Open the PointGrayRecorder solution in Chimera

It lives at https://github.com/8i/Chimera/blob/master/Recorder/V1/PointGrayRecorder/PointGrayRecorder.sln. Lol.

Alter the server app post build step

I've never got the post build steps to run. When I first got the recorder setup on my machine with Bob's help we simply deleted the code in here as it wasn't needed for the ServerApp project. So you should just do this too. Only thing to remember here is to not commit this change.
