And maybe describe your use-case, what (not how) you want to do and why.

yes, i wanted to do that, but got lost in technicalities while filing the issue, that it got mingled in the long version, and got skipped in the TL;DR version 😅 . anyways, following is it:

i have to take screenshot of the output, and embed those in a document
for that, the output has to launch in a fixed window width, and in a fixed font size - both of which are compulsory, and have to be easily specifiable
optionally, it would be nice if the output is in light theme - so that while taking the print out (i.e. hard print out on paper), it looks nice while consuming less ink

These above are requirements, and following is why the current situation is unable to achieve the last optional one:

output of geany is shown on conhost

changing theme on conhost is not easy (click for details)

i tried doing that via colortool (see above comment) which required using either of 4-bit terminal or terminal.sexy
the 4-bit's presets were nice, only required two clicks : white/bright-white in background, and black in foreground
- screenshot:
- but i just couldn't get the generated .itermcolors (by copy pasting the data:url and decoding it from url-encoding) file to work with conhost.
- same with terminal.sexy

that is, i don't have a functional light theme for conhost
and don't know how to change geany to output in a terminal for which it is (easy to do all above)
