Heaven and Hell

Heaven and Hell - emacs package for easy toggling of light/dark color themes.

TLDR:

Why?

I constantly switch light and dark theme. When it's sunny outside, or I work in a very light room - I use the light theme. Otherwise, I prefer dark one. So I wrote a bunch of helpers which helped me with this and one day I decided to make a package out of it. Hope it'll be useful to anybody else. Cheers!

Features

• Define your favorite light and dark themes
• Choose which one to run by default
• Switch between them with a single keypress
• Easily roll back to default emacs theme in case of messed faces
