# term-background: print "light" or "dark" for the current terminal.
#
# Asks the terminal for its background color with the OSC 11 escape sequence,
# converts the reply to perceived luminance, and prints "light" or "dark".
# Prints "dark" (the safe default) when the terminal does not answer.
#
# All terminal I/O happens on /dev/tty, so this is safe inside $(...).
#
# Works locally and over SSH (the query reaches whichever real terminal draws
# the screen). Inside tmux/screen the multiplexer may answer instead of the
# outer terminal, so detection can be wrong there; override it with
# export TERM_BACKGROUND=light # or dark
# in ~/.environment.local on that machine.
#
# Tune the response wait via TERM_BACKGROUND_TIMEOUT (tenths of a second).
# Need a controlling terminal to talk to.

# Raw mode with a short read timeout (min 0 time N = up to N*0.1s) so an
# unresponsive terminal costs us at most that long.
