This repository can be used with any base16-builder to create base16 color schemes compatible with setvtrgb
The color schemes can be applied during the early boot stage and there is a initcpio hook for that. I can enter my encryption password with the color scheme applied under Arch Linux. There is an AUR Package available.
From a linux terminal (Ctrl + Alt + [F1..F12])
cd /usr/share/kbd/consolecolors/
setvtrgb base16-tomorrow.vga
setvtrgb base16-tomorrow-night.hex # for newer versions of setvtrgb
I think that /usr/share/kbd/consolecolors would be a good path name to install color schemes for the virtual terminal into, because setvtrgb comes from the kbd package and the package already has other console* folders there.
I have also prepared an initcpio hook for Arch Linux under initcpio/. The hook uses /etc/vtrgb as its configuration file and this file can also be a symlink to a color scheme from the before mentioned folder. I have successfully tried the hook as first hook in my /etc/mkinicpio.conf. The name /etc/vtrgb I have chosen, because I found that file to be part of modern Ubuntu installations and it contains color scheme information there as well. By doing that I hope that my packages will be compatible across distributions, but we will see.
Under Arch Linux it is exceptionally easy to use console colors. The installation could be as simple as:
yay -S base16-vtrgb
sudo ln -sf /usr/share/kbd/consolecolors/base16-papercolor-light.vga /etc/vtrgb
Add the setvtrgb,consolefont as HOOKS in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf and recreate your initramfs with:
vim /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
/HOOKS
[...]
HOOKS=(setvtrgb consolefont base udev modconf block keyboard zfs filesystems)
[...]
:wq
mkinitcpio -p linux
If using systemd and sd-vconsole, use the sd-setvtrgb service hook instead:
vim /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
/HOOKS
[...]
HOOKS=(base systemd sd-setvtrgb sd-vconsole modconf block keyboard zfs filesystems)
[...]
:wq
mkinitcpio -p linux
