solarized.vim

A simpler fork of the awesome Solarized colorscheme for Vim by Ethan Schoonover, completely written from scratch.

What was removed? The degraded 256 color scheme, all functions, mappings and menus, and the configuration options. Bold and underline attributes are enabled for both terminal and GUI modes. Italic is only enabled for GUI.

ERB templates are used to generate the colorscheme, so the code is easy to maintain and it runs fast in Vim.

Requirements

For users of Vim in terminal mode, the terminal emulator must either support true-color, or be configured with the Solarized color palette:

Term Color | Hex     | RGB
-----------|---------|------------
black      | #073642 |   7  54  66
red        | #dc322f | 220  50  47
green      | #719e07 | 113 158   7
yellow     | #b58900 | 181 137   0
blue       | #268bd2 |  38 139 210
magenta    | #d33682 | 211  54 130
cyan       | #2aa198 |  42 161 152
white      | #eee8d5 | 238 232 213
brblack    | #002732 |   0  39  50
brred      | #cb4b16 | 203  75  22
brgreen    | #586e75 |  88 110 117

brcyan     | #93a1a1 | 147 161 161

Color palette files for the main terminal emulators can be found in the Solarized repository.

Installation

• Manual:

  curl -fLo ~/.vim/colors/solarized.vim --create-dirs https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ericbn/vim-solarized/master/colors/solarized.vim
  

• Using pathogen.vim:

  cd ~/.vim/bundle
  git clone git://github.com/ericbn/vim-solarized.git

  Plug 'ericbn/vim-solarized'
  

Configuration

Add one of the following to your .vimrc:

• For dark background:

True-color support
