OS X Day and Night Terminals (opens in new tab)

i've recently started using f.lux [1], which adjusts the color temperature of the screen based on the time. after a night of coding, i've noticed i've been able to fall asleep more quickly, probably since my eyes adjust to the ambient warm light in the room while coding.

It would be neat if you could use the MacBook light sensor that turns on the keyboard lights to trigger switching terminal themes

What about Nocturne (from the Quicksilver guys: http://www.blacktree.com/ )?

Or even simpler, ctrl-alt-cmd-8?

1. Needs to be automated (look up sunset time like Instapaper) 2. Needs to be part of every browser (for the blank page).

This is interesting. I've come to love Solarized, and switch between the two depending on day and night.

In iTerm2 I mapped the lighter theme to CTRL-CMD-L and the dark theme to CTRL-CMD-D. I am sure there is a quick way to change the default theme as well, though I haven't really tried too hard.
