iTerm2 support

See https://github.com/rainglow/iterm for possible help in creating a template

Note that this needs a way of transforming the current theme hex codes to individual RGB percentages.

Thanks Ben, Waiting for this amazing theme to release.

Hi @ciscohack -- I've been working periodically on adding iTerm2 support, but encountered a bug in iTerm2 where a generic color profile crashes the terminal if it doesn't specify certain fields (unrelated to theme). I'm going to create an issue on the iTerm2 gitlab page and see if the creator has any ideas.

@benbusby Yes please open a ticket with iterm2 ..iterm dev is very prompt and responsive ..he will fix it quickly

Hi @ciscohack, I think I'm almost finished with the iterm2 themes, but had a few things to mention.

So the existing theme colors use editor specific names (like boolean, number, string, etc) and not names that translate well to ANSI colors for terminal emulators (like ansi 1 or red etc), but I did my best to try and match editor values to an appropriate ANSI color. I think it'll require a bit of refactoring to make the color generator work equally well for editors and terminal emulators, but it'd be a worthwhile improvement.

On that note, I'm going to start updating this repo to contain only the code necessary for generating themes so that other people can start using it to generate their own themes as well. I'm not sure which repo I'll migrate the actual "earthbound themes" to afterwards, but I'll let you know once I decide on where those should go.

In the meantime, I've attached the current iteration of the iterm2 themes so that you can try them out. Once I've had a chance to redo the theme templating to work with more standard color names, I think they'll end up looking even better. Thanks for your patience while I'm working on this!

First Thanks a lot Ben for hard work.

No problem! I'm happy to help.

I'll try to get to this soon. I haven't used hyper terminal before, so I'll need to mess around with it a bit first, but it shouldn't be too hard. I'll let you know once I have a version ready for you to try out.

OK, so I finished the Fire Spring theme for Hyper. I've included instructions below:

1. git clone https://github.com/benbusby/hyper-earthbound-themes.git ~/.hyper_plugins/local/earthbound_themes
2. In your .hyper.js file add localPlugins: ['earthbound_themes'],
3. Then add earthbound_themes: 'fire-spring', to your .hyper.js file as well

I'm completely new to Hyper, so there might be a simpler way, but that's how I got it working on my computer at least. Hope this helps!
