About

Explicitly supported plugins:

I consider this colorscheme all-new, because of the countless changes & iterations and because there is no resemblance to existing themes. The following colorschemes were influential in the beginning: blackboard, github, molokai, pyte and winter.

Thanks to https://github.com/godlygeek/csapprox, which helped greatly in bringing 256 color terminal support to this colorscheme!

Suggestions for improving support for other programming languages and plugins are welcome!

It contains two themes, one for each background setting (light and dark). The default colorscheme is light, as is Vims default setting, if you don't set the background manually.
