Try commenting out this line
#background #17202A

I mean comment out the line that sets the background color code

@xiahuaS yes that worked. however i also had to comment out #foreground #dddddd, #cursor #cccccc and all the colors for example
#color1 #cc0403, #color9 #f2201f.

I have just tested the commands and they work, you need obviously to restart kitty to see the changes.

It should not be necessary to comment out anything from the theme, if you change these settings you will end up with a different custom theme.

@markmark1, do you have any additional information? which command is giving you an error?

@manojuppala I tested the commands and they work. Can you elaborate more? do you get any errors? Maybe the symbolic link already axists.

I'm running into the same issue, I tried it at the bottom. All the colors seem to be commented out by default like

# foreground #dddddd
# background #000000

but the theme still doesnt seem to be picked up.

Any ideas?

Quick update, logging out and then logging back it let the kitty.app pick up the env for the config file and then it worked :)
