color-my-text-vscode's Issues

Extension not working as expected.

Hey,

I just downloaded this extension into my VS code. I opened the examples folder, but for some reason I am not able to see the colours in the to-do file.

Can anyone please help me with that?

Add custom color support

Custom colors should be added. There's really no reason it should be limited to ansi colors. Especially since some of them are quite ugly or off-hue for some colors in some themes. As an example TODO Highlight supports a lot of formats: #ABC, #AABBCC, #AABBCCDD, rgb(0, 0.5, 1), rgba(0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75), and seems to support color names. My usecase is fixing syntax highlighting of variable substitutions {name} for a Rust macro I made.

As a workaround, you can override your theme's ansi colors in settings.json

"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
    // Darkplus variable blue
    "terminal.ansiBrightCyan": "#9cdcfe"
},
