Visual Studio Code, as close to the original as pardes draws: dark_plus

Every colour is the original's own, cited file:line in each theme file.

Chrome moved to meet pardes's floors (text, syntax, ANSI untouched):
  dark_plus: unfocused tag ground #2d2d2d -> #3c3c3c: 1.21:1 off the focused one (the page, kept), pardes needs 1.5:1 on a dark page
  dark_plus: unfocused tag text #969696 -> #a7a7a7: 3.73:1 on #3c3c3c, tag text needs 4.5:1 to be read and run
