Hi Canton Team,
Just speccing up my Ubuntu Server with Canton Community 0.27.0, ran the cmd:
bin/canton -c examples/01-simple-topology/simple-topology.conf and noted that the two top lines after the command in the terminal are very hard to read.
I am using Raspberry Pi O/S on an RPIv4 with the LXDE terminal over SSH to admin the Canton instance.
I suggest modifying the default colour from Dark_Blue to White for the two lines:
Compiling (synthetic)/ammonite/predef/ArgsPredef.sc
Compiling /home/qadmin/opt/canton-community-0.27.0/(console)
Screenshot attached.

Hi @quidagis
The colors are ammonites default settings and we haven’t really touched them. The way Canton appears also depends a bit on your terminal settings. Therefore it is tricky to find one setting that works for all users.
The upcoming release will allow adjusting some ammonite configs:

Part of that is turning off the colors.
Will that help?
Best,
Ratko

Hi @Ratko_Veprek I think that would be the best solution.
I tested in my LXDE_Terminal and the only way to have all the Canton shell outputs easy-to-see is to use BG=Black, FG=White or some highly contrasting theme.
Great work on the configs, thanks
