I got tired of my terminal being painfully bright at night and impossible to read in daylight, so I built this small utility for Guake Terminal. It lets you save different color schemes and switch between them with simple commands like day and night.
The main frustration it solves is keeping LSD (ls-deluxe) readable - yellow text on white backgrounds is a nightmare. Now when I toggle my system between light/dark modes, my terminal, ls colors, and LSD output all switch automatically. Nothing groundbreaking, but it's made my terminal experience much more pleasant when working in different lighting conditions. It also has zero dependencies.
