This is certainly useful, although with colour themes in the form of 
escape sequences (some minttyrc colour schemes are also distributed in 
this form), a simple `cat` would also do the trick. A simple shell 
script could do the listing or transform formats on-the-fly.
Anyway, mintty now has its own feature to load a colour scheme (option 
ThemeFile, also in the Options menu, but not from the command line) 
where colour schemes are kept in a dedicated subdirectory. It would be 
good to integrate your script with this, so it's not necessary to 
duplicate the schemes in two repositories.
Kind regards,
Thomas
