Solarized Colorscheme for Mutt
|
||||
==============================
|
||||
|
||||
See the [homepage for the Solarized colorscheme][solarized] for versions for
|
||||
Vim, popular terminal emulators and other applications.
|
||||
|
||||
If you have come across this colorscheme via the [mutt-only repository on
|
||||
github][mutt-solarized-github], see the link above to the Solarized homepage or
|
||||
visit the [github repository for Solarized][solarized-github].

Installation
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
1. Move the mutt-colors-solarized directory into the same location as your
|
||||
muttrc. Alternately, you can copy just the version of the colorscheme you
|
||||
will be using (see below for details).
|
||||
|
||||
2. Source the colorscheme in your muttrc. Only one of the following, depending
|
||||
on the light or dark background you wish to use, and whether you want to use
|
||||
the native 16 colors of your terminal emulator or the approximatation
|
||||
provided by the 256 color values. See note below for recommendations.
|
||||
|
||||
source $MAILCONF/mutt-colors-solarized/mutt-colors-solarized-dark-16.muttrc
|
||||
source $MAILCONF/mutt-colors-solarized/mutt-colors-solarized-light-16.muttrc
|
||||
source $MAILCONF/mutt-colors-solarized/mutt-colors-solarized-dark-256.muttrc
|
||||
source $MAILCONF/mutt-colors-solarized/mutt-colors-solarized-light-256.muttrc
|
||||
|
||||
Which Variation?
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
|
||||
See the [Solarized homepage][solarized] for screenshots which will help you
|
||||
select either the light or dark background.
|
||||
|
||||
A thornier question is whether to use the 16 color version or the 256 color
|
||||
version. I have spent a great deal of time refining this colorscheme and for
|
||||
the most accurate experience I recommend that you set your terminal emulator to
|
||||
use the Solarized colorvalues with the 16 color mutt colorschemes in this
|
||||
distribution. Terminal colorschemes/values are available at the homepage linked
|
||||
to above.
|
||||
|
||||
The 256 color versions provide an approximate experience of the colorscheme in
|
||||
most regards, though the carefully selected monotones are crudely replaced by
|
||||
neutral tones.
