# My collection of 256-color vim colorschemes. Because I don't care about the other vim colorschemes. ## Installation #### Using [vundle](https://github.com/gmarik/vundle/) (**recommended!**) % echo 'Bundle noah/vim256-color' >> ~/.vimrc: % vim +BundleInstall! #### Using [Pathogen](http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2332) % cd ~/.vim/bundle % git clone --recursive git://github.com/noah/vim256-color.git #### Manual install % git clone --recursive git://github.com/noah/vim256-color.git colors % cp ./colors/* ~/.vim/colors #### Manual update With a few exceptions (e.g., where a public git source is not available), these themes are references to git submodules. So, they can be updated *en masse* by doing the following: % git submodule foreach git pull % ./update_links.sh May be necessary to run: % git submodule update --init --recursive I say "may" because let's be honest, git submodules are pure voodoo. `update_links.sh` is a git pre-commit hook, I provide it here since these hooks aren't versioned by git... ### Adding themes % cd ./submodules % git submodule add https://.... % cd .. % ./update_links.sh % commit + push ## Including: ``` 256-grayvim 256-jungle Apprentice badwolf base16 beauty256 beekai blacklight bubblegum BusyBee C64.vim calmar256-lightdark charged-256 ChasingLogic-colorscheme-vim cobalt2-vim-theme codeschool coffee colorful256 crt desert256 Disciple donbass.vim elda.vim feral-vim FlatColor flattown flattr.vim fu Gentooish greenvision gruvbox.vim heroku-colorscheme icansee.vim iceberg.vim ingretu inkpot jellybeans.vim khaki.vim last256 leo256 lettuce.vim lilypink Liquid-Carbon lodestone Lucius mango.vim miko molokai mrkn256.vim muon mushroom neverland-vim-theme oxeded.vim peaksea pink rdark-terminal seoul256.vim seti.vim Simple256 southernlights Spacegray.vim strange summerfruit256.vim synic.vim tabula.vim tchaba The-Vim-Gardener tir\_black vilight.vim vim-atom-dark vim-babymate256 vim-colors_atelier_schemes vim-colorscheme-darcula vim-colors-codeschool vim-colors-pencil vim-colors-solarized vim-distinguished vim-getafe vim-hemisu vim-herokudoc-theme vim-hybrid vim-kolor vim-monochrome vim-phoenix vim-railscasts vim-tomorrow-theme vim-vividchalk vim-vividchalk-sexy wombat256 xoria256.vim Zenburn ``` To format the above list: !tr ' ' '\n' | uniq | sort -f -d | tr '\n' ' ' | fold -w 72 -s ## My favorite Still [fu](https://aaron-mueller.de/blog/the-most-awesome-colorscheme-for-vim) ## See also: * Notes on the 256 color mode of xterm: http://frexx.de/xterm-256-notes/ * 256 colors in vim: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/256\_colors\_in\_vim * 256 color chart: http://www.calmar.ws/vim/256-xterm-24bit-rgb-color-chart.html * Vivify vim theme editor: http://bytefluent.com/vivify/ * terminal designer: http://terminal.sexy/
