--color

You can partially or completely customize the default color configuration of fzf with --color option.

# --color=[BASE_SCHEME][,COLOR:ANSI]
fzf --color=bg+:24
fzf --color=light,fg:232,bg:255,bg+:116,info:27

The name of the base color scheme is followed by custom color mappings. ANSI color code of -1 denotes terminal default foreground/background color.

The color specification can be quite long if fully customized, so it's advised that you put it in $FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS. You can also split it into multiple --colors like follows:

export FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS='
  --color fg:124,bg:16,hl:202,fg+:214,bg+:52,hl+:231
  --color info:52,prompt:196,spinner:208,pointer:196,marker:208
'

  • dark Color scheme for dark 256-color terminal
  • light Color scheme for light 256-color terminal
  • 16 Color scheme for 16-color terminal

Alternate Solarized Light/Dark Theme

This one is easier to read (in my opinion) because the selected row contrasts less with the text.
