default color bottom line / file info

[grammoboy2]

default color bottom line / file info is white. In nnn it's blue, in Ranger it starts with a different color then white (purple here). A different color for the bottom line, makes reading more pleasant.

I disagree: white is a safe default for readability. Reason: Many terminal programs only use 8/16 colors, as a result many users have tweaked their terminal colors. This often results in not-ideal or poor readability of some color combinations. nnn uses normal blue on black, which is not ideal either.

Example, from top to bottom:

• nnn
• lf
• ranger
• ls -lh

FWIW I like ranger's output the most. Selective use of colors (similar to syntax highlighting) makes is more readable. Also, its output is very similar to ls -lh, which many people are familiar with.

There is no point in changing the color for the complete text, IMO. The statusline is already simple to read/locate since it's located at the bottom of the screen.

Edit: The above shows lf release 27, not sure why owner and count are not displayed, I see it should via 60d6119.

I like ranger format too. I hope statusline can be configured, something like statusfmt.

PS: I think owner and count would be fixed in the next release thru #829, which not in the release yet.
