I think the work Nicolas Rougier has done on "beautifying" Emacs (including org-mode) is about the best that's been done, examples and code:

Also on arXiv: "On the design of text editors"

Indeed!

I remember liking "elegance" at the time[0] by the same author.

I wonder if that notebook mode (which looks great) works well with dark background and light text?

I really want to mess with this, but I have zero time for yak shaving right now. Too many deliverables for this week :/


No but you can use the 'dark background' style sheet in matplotlib (https://matplotlib.org/stable/gallery/style_sheets/dark_back...) and then it would work.

But if you have zero time for yak shaving I wouldn't try it anyways :)


When I used Emacs I went for nano, it’s pretty.
