Starlit Abyss

A theme for Obsidian based on computer consoles depicted in popular '80s sci-fi films.

"Starlit Abyss" is based on Satchelmouth's WYConsole Theme.

Wishlist & Known Issues

• Custom caret - unfortunately, I'm SOL on this one until CSS 4 drops and Obsidian integrates it. The general idea is to make the caret a box caret, like on old computer terminals. If anyone knows a way to accomplish this via JS, a PR is more than welcome.
• Canvas
  • Changing a connection's arrowhead's color is not currently possible. It's not a CSS selectable object.
  • Some strange 1px grey borders will show when viewing a table header row via a Canvas embed, but not when in direct Reading or Editing views of those same notes.
• Some way for black text/white page PDF files to be recolored to match the theme
