Expected Behavior

I recently discovered colortool.exe (https://github.com/Microsoft/console/tree/master/tools/ColorTool). This works well in windows cmd, both "legacy" and with "new console features".

colortool with Command Prompt

Actual Behavior

It either takes no effect, or the colors are different but do not match what they "should."

colortool with ConsoleZ

In this instance, it set the font color to blue:

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install colortool
  2. In ConsoleZ run colortool solarized_light. I've also tried colortool -x solarized_light and colortool -b solarized_light.

Here are my settings via diagnostics: diagnostics.log. Though, when I look at my console.xml, I do not see the color id's:

<tab title="ConsoleZ" use_default_icon="0">
    <console shell="cmd /K %USERPROFILE%\.cmdrc.cmd" init_dir="C:\Users\<me>" priority="2" run_as_user="0" user="" net_only="0" run_as_admin="0"/>
</tab>

ConsoleZ uses the colors map defined in tabs settings.

So actually, this is the expected behavior.

Seems like this should be closed, plus I'm no longer using windows...
