Mix of 2 themes ([Dracula](https://resource.dopus.com/t/dracula-theme/30928) & [VS Dark Theme](https://resource.dopus.com/t/vs-dark-theme/24533)) to bring the best out of each other:

Thanks to @bejavi & @Stumpii for the core work!

Directory Opus version used for the setup: `13.1`.

Optionally, I suggest applying this Windows title bar colour: `#556593`.

**Changelog** :

- 02/02/2024 – change the colour of folder tab's "selected background" to a purple tint
- 27/01/2024 – update theme to Directory Opus 13.1
- 04/12/2021 – suggest modifying _tree highlight path line_ colour from orange to light purple (as on theme's cover)
- 18/10/2021 – modify colours of _toolbar selection_ and _file display border_
- 15/10/2021 – modify _glyphs_ colour to a more visible one
- 14/10/2021 – initial release under Directory Opus 12.25

Thanks for noting this!

@Leo and @Jon, any chance this setting can be squeezed into the dlt file without messing up other stuff?

It will be as part of a large overhaul of how themes, dark mode, etc. work.
