Customise Positron Console (or have the option to use an opposite light/dark theme from editor)

[ddanieltan]

I would like to customize my Positron to have a dark theme for my editor, but a light theme theme for my console. From #5512, I learnt that I can edit settings such as positronConsole.background and positronConsole.foreground to override defaults which is great.

But I also realise that there aren't any fields for me to customise the syntax highlights of my code. Which as you can see from this screenshot, is hard to read because I have changed to a light theme based background and foreground colour, but my syntax highlights are still configured for a dark theme.

Is there anyway for me to specify that I want a light theme for my console?

Ah unfortunately, there isn't currently a way to set the syntax highlighting separately from the main theme. Thanks for this report, and we will keep an eye out for how common of a request this is! 🙌
