Have been using a light foreground color at geany due this issue for a while now. But wanted to use a dark one again. For me at last the 99% problem is that I can't read directory names at ls (at other CLI tools it's barely used).

As that type-to-color mapping is defined at environment variable LS_COLORS, thought to override that one. Combined with utility to detect if the terminal's parent process is geany the color is overridden there, meaning it only applys to geany terminal. I added this to .bashrc:

[[ `ps -e | grep "$PPID"` == *"geany"* ]] && export LS_COLORS="${LS_COLORS}di=01;32:"

Sure would be better if geany offers proper terminal color palette configuration, but well works good enough for that case at last.
