there is just one downfall: tabs are not divided, you cannot understand which tab is open or not. I think it should indicate the open tab with a bit dark colour.

Не выделяется активная вкладка. Не поймешь, где находишься

Great looking theme but I cannot tell which tab is the one I am currently on. They all look the same.
