Subject: [PATCH] terra: hyprchrome glow/shadow, borderless windows, warmer
 accents
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Now that the plugin draws its own outline and glow, hyprland's own border is
redundant — border_size 0 and let hyprchrome own the window edge (outline_size
2 in fg_color). Fill in the rest of its knobs: glow 12/0.85, shadow 24 offset
{4,8} in bg_color.

Accents go warm: bg_accent to a muted red (963c38) and a new fg_accent_alt
(ff9d42) so the active-border gradient runs amber->orange instead of
amber->background. Colour literals lowercased for consistency.

Also re-pick the placeholder wallpaper, and drop the comment explaining
hyprland's lua gradient table format — the surviving call site is now the
only one and reads plainly enough.
