| # "luminous" colour theme for mintty | |
| # | |
| # The aim of this theme is to provide vibrant colours where the normal and bold | |
| # levels each have approximately equal luminance. The variants of each colour | |
| # have slightly different hues to help distinguish them. | |
| # | |
| # To level the colours, their luminance was calculated as follows: | |
| # - Gamma-expand the sRGB components by dividing each by 255 and applying the | |
| # sRGB transfer function (which approximately means applying exponent 2.2). | |
| # - Combine the components with formula Y = 0.2126 R + 0.7152 G + 0.0722 B. | |
| # - Gamma-compress with the reverse transfer function (approximately: apply | |
| # exponent 1/2.2). | |
| # | |

| # | |
| # The colours were then adjusted to achieve equal luminance. However, that does | |
| # not actually yield colours with equal apparent brightness. This is due to the | |
| # "Helmholtz-Kohlrausch effect", which means that some saturated colours appear | |
| # brighter than others to the human eye: | |

| # See also the "helmholtz" and "kohlrausch" themes that attempt to compensate | |
| # for that. | |
