Change Telescope's Border Color In Ghostty

I've been playing around with Ghostty¹. Most things have been working out of the box. One thing that hasn't been is the borders around floating Telescope² windows that I use for my grimoire³.

They Just Worked™ in iTerm2⁴. Took a bit of digging to figure out that adding this to my ~/.config/nvim/init.lua file was required to fix them in Ghostty so they'd show up:

vim.cmd.highlight({ "TelescopeBorder", "guibg=Black guifg=White"})

With that in place. Thing work as expected.

You can learn more about what colors are available with:

:help ctermbg

and

:help guibg
