A low-contrast color scheme for reading code all day. Supports Terminal.app/Vim.
Run this:
git clone https://github.com/brhs/butter
cd butter
open Butter.terminal
mkdir -p ~/.vim/colors
cp butter.vim ~/.vim/colors/butter.vim
Add the following lines to your vimrc file:
syntax on
set t_Co=16
colorscheme butter
For Python, we want multiline strings highlighted as comments rather than strings, because the background tint looks ugly on docstrings:
mkdir -p ~/.vim/syntax
cp python.vim ~/.vim/syntax/python.vim
- I can't believe it's not butter for color base
- Zenburn for general inspiration
- Some dude called Irwin/x0r for the highlighted strings
