Scripts for setting the Solarized color set with Gnome Terminal.
Only the foreground, background and highlight colors are different in the light and dark color sets, as one of the main ideas behind Ethan Schonoovers work is to use the same colors in the palette for both.
If you are not happy, you can change which colors are used for what in the shell. This can be done by using ls-colors-solarized.
See the Solarized homepage for theory behind the colors, screenshots, details and colorscheme versions for Vim, Mutt, popular terminal emulators and other applications.
For the original works of Ethan Schoonover, visit the Solarized repository. The scripts for Gnome Terminal is maintained in Gnome Terminal Colors Solarized repository.
Clone the [git repository], then run ./solarize. To change between light and
dark background, run ./solarize again.
$ git clone git://github.com/sigurdga/gnome-terminal-colors-solarized.git
$ cd gnome-terminal-colors-solarized
$ ./solarize
Change to another profile in Gnome Terminal, then remove the Solarized profile by running:
$ rm -r ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Solarized/
