Make theme/color_scheme optional
Self-explanatory. This allows the user to opt out of Terminus's themes, and should address #5 in a clean way.
Since I'm not familiar with the codebase, there are likely to be eyebrow-raising or hair-raising changes. I'm absolutely not insisting on this to be merged, but rather it's a suggestion. Maintainers might envision a better way to do it.
Unfortunately, we need to customize the theme in order to support the color highlight. An arbitary user theme won't work.
Took some digging to realize what you're talking about. By pure accident, none of the tools I ran in Terminus so far use colorized output, so I wasn't even thinking of it. But this also showcases a viable use case. For some users, maybe all their tools' output is colorless, or they don't particularly care and just want consistency in ST. I think it's a useful option to have, especially before the adaptive theme. (Wouldn't have made the patch otherwise.) But of course it's up to you whether this functionality should be in the core.
Maybe it should be noted that terminal color output in general is optional and can often be disabled, though I'm not sure if there's a conventional interface all such programs are expected to obey. In normal terminal emulators this opt-out is not particularly important. Terminus is a different case because it's embedded inside Sublime which already has its own themes and color schemes, so the opt-out becomes somewhat more important.
