Description
In this talk I will share my experience of finding and creating the “perfect” Emacs theme. I will go through the five themes I have created and discuss the motivations and ideas behind them, which will also introduce various color spaces. And I will look into the future to see if there is hope to find the "perfect" theme.
About the speaker:
I'm a long time Emacs user (since Emacs 21). I don't write a lot of elisp but I'm spend vast majority of my screen time with Emacs, and I'm picky about how it looks. This talk shows how may hoops I'm willing to jump through to make it look "right".
