You can create your own theme if you don't like the default ones, for that we have template.theme, where you can see the format of the themes and an example. After you created your theme, you just need to add it in the themes folder (that's where all the themes should be saved).
If you modify any of these and want to use the new theme, we highly recommend that you change the default-theme field from settings.txt, otherwise the font/icons/charSize will not be properly updated.
The best part about our project is that it is open source, that means you can take a look at the code and modify it. You can change literally anything you want (at your own risk).
If you are willing to modify the code yourself, you will need to compile it afterwards, so here are the compilation commands:
Linux: g++ src/*.cpp src/components/*.cpp -Iinclude -Iinclude/components -std=c++20 -lsfml-graphics -lsfml-window -lsfml-system -o total-commander-linux && ./total-commander-linux && clear
Windows: g++ src/*.cpp src/components/*.cpp -Iinclude -Iinclude/components -std=c++20 -IPATH_TO_SFML_INCLUDE -DSFML_STATIC -LPATH_TO_SFML_LIB -lsfml-graphics-s -lsfml-window-s -lsfml-system-s -lopengl32 -lfreetype -lwinmm -lgdi32 -o total-commander && total-commander.exe
For this to work, you will need to install SFML.
