True color support? about vhs

[Delta456]

For this to work wouldn't the Terminal need to support/have 24 bit color? I find this idea to be great though.

I actually tried out a script that tries to print out a full colour gradient and it looks like we do support truecolor:

#!/bin/bash
awk 'BEGIN{
    s="/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\"; s=s s s s s s s s;
    for (colnum = 0; colnum<77; colnum++) {
        r = 255-(colnum*255/76);
        g = (colnum*510/76);
        b = (colnum*255/76);
        if (g>255) g = 510-g;
        printf "\033[48;2;%d;%d;%dm", r,g,b;
        printf "\033[38;2;%d;%d;%dm", 255-r,255-g,255-b;
        printf "%s\033[0m", substr(s,colnum+1,1);
    }
    printf "\n";
}'

For reference, this is what it looks like on my terminal.
