I've decided to switch back to Bash from Fish, but I can't live anymore without syntax highlighting, so I've installed ble.sh to do the same in Bash. Everything is fine, except that I can't find any information about setting background colour of autocompletions — it's always blinding white:
In this section author describes how to set highlighiting colours, but none of this applies to autocompletions colours.
Any ideas?
You can use the face auto_complete to configure the style of suggestions by auto-complete.
Here are some examples for the setting in your ~/.blerc:
# blerc
# ble-0.4+ (edit: 2022-12-04, fix 2023-02-10)
ble-face auto_complete='fg=242,bg=235'
ble-face auto_complete='fg=white,bg=69'
ble-face auto_complete='fg=240,underline,italic'
# ble-0.3
ble-color-setface auto_complete fg=242,bg=235
ble-color-setface auto_complete fg=white,bg=69
ble-color-setface auto_complete fg=240,underline,italic
I'm sorry for inconvenience. I updated README.md in the latest commit 50327c3. I also changed ble-color-setface [edit: renamed to ble-face in ble-0.4] to output the settings of current faces when no argument is supplied. Now, with the latest devel version, you can check the list of faces by the following command:
$ ble-color-setface
ble-color-setface auto_complete fg=246,underline,italic
ble-color-setface blerc_git_commit_id fg=navy
(snip)
ble-color-setface vbell_erase bg=252
ble-color-setface vbell_flash fg=green,reverse
[ble: exit ...]?

TRAPERR() { :; } in your ~/.blerc. Outputting exit status is the default behavior when TRAPERR is not defined.

exec_errexit_mark. When you use the latest version, please add bleopt exec_errexit_mark='' in blerc to disable exit status mark.
