Show HN: Disguise webpage text to appear as though you are in Visual Studio (viewtext.org)

Ah, the return of the good old boss key. I remember being baffled by its presence in Battle Chess as a young child.


I'll be adding more themes. Contact me if you'd like a specific one.


Some Linux (Vim) themes would be helpful. I somehow doubt my boss would fall for the Visual Studio one. :)


Thanks, I'll be working on those. Can you send me a screenshot of your environment? I'll take the SS and turn it into a usable theme.


My Vim is highly customized so it won't be of much use to anyone else. It would be really cool if we could submit our own themes but it's probably be easier to write a plugin that opens web pages directly in Vim.

Perhaps you can add a simple terminal theme (white monospace text on a black background)?


This is a test comment. Please ignore.


Nice, but wouldn't fool anybody...now if you made it show a fixed-width font with some fake syntax highlighting...
