That's a custom one, based on the port of the Railscasts.tmtheme.
Just pushed it to my "dots" repo on Github.
Thanks and I really like your terminal colour scheme. However I couldn't get your dotshare.vim working correctly on my machine (either that or it doesn't look very nice in C).

Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

I think what you're doing wrong is using console Vim. The colorscheme is for Gvim only, sorry

scrotwm.

@teh, nice screenshot, I had gotten forgotten about scrotwm and hadn't even realized it was in portage.

p.s. can you post your Xdefaults colors?

vik_k · 2011-06-17 05:16:31

mine.

Well k3ttc4r you've inspired me to change up my colours.

I've pushed my latest dotfiles to the dotfiles/mactop branch (link below).

Edit: Fixed thumbs, sorry mods.

Interesting, there seem to be two big camps, one swears for dark letters on light background, the other camp otherwise respectively. I definitely belong to the first camp, so I agree with upsidaisium
UPDATE: nevermind, I really should refresh my browser window time to time

Dude, nice desktop.
Can you share your wallpaper please?

vik_k · 2011-06-17 10:10:26

I actually forgot to link it before.

Wow.

That was a lot of opinions on my desktop. What can I say; it's what works for me, it's what suits my workflow the best. The only application that I use that's not running in a terminal is Firefox, and that's why I want the experience in the shell to be as pleasing as possible.

Regarding the font - yes, I am a programmer, and I want to see as much code as possible at a time. Now, the perfect solution would be to switch the monitors 90°, but sadly that's not possible with mine, yet. I'm going to upgrade soon, though.

There are tons of stuff that makes my life easier in the shell that you can't see in the screenshot. I think you'd have to try it (and learn all of it) to really understand what's going on.

Thanks. :-)

@mason.larobina
What background is there in the second screenshot,I guess you have a transparent terminal or something?

Guys! Before taking any drastic decisions here.. It is easy to automatically convert guicolors to cterm colors using a neat little script. Have a look at my previous post in this thread here.

@vik_k: Thanks a lot!

It was just the choice of colours and font size that I thought was hard on my eyes. But of course I understand that that's what works for you. If it didn't, then why bother to set it up that way?

I also spend the majority of my time in the terminal. The only apps I use that don't run in a terminal are Opera and Wily (well... and small tools like sxiv or xfontsel, if we really want to get specific). So I suppose that our ways of working are quite similar -- we just have some aesthetic/stylistic differences.

That'd only give you approximations though.

If the colorscheme is GUI only, you can grab the hexadecimal representations of the colors from the colorscheme, and (temporarily) set your terminal colors to exactly those. This way you'll get exactly what the author had in mind, in your terminal.

Now, there are various ways to do this. You can either have a separate .Xresources kind of file that you automagically load when you start Vim ( see [0] for some examples ). You'll have to use either Xterm (or a sane Xterm-compatible term) or my patched urxvt [1] to allow changing colors besides the standard ANSI colors ( 0 - 15 ).

Else, you can use something like colorcoke [2]. What you choose to use depends on if you want the colors to be persistent or not; changing the colors with colorcoke in a terminal session will make that session use those colors; when you spawn a new shell, you'll have your old colors back. So that might be suitable for this use.
You can also use colorcoke to make persistent colorschemes [3].

If someone's interesting in automating all of this, drop me a mail. I think it'd be a huge step forward, because it's a little known fact that you actually *can* change *all* of the terminal colors.

Yeah, I can understand that it might be a bit much for some people. I think I have to blame my interest in terminal emulator implementations for all of this.

I also used xfontsel until I found out about xlsfonts (and that's when I made pickyfont [0]). Perhaps a bit ironic, but the reason why I made this was because sometimes, I want to use another / bigger font in some application. It's mostly when I need to show someone something in the terminal, or when I need to have ncmpcpp fullscreen so other people can pick music, etc...

I forgot that I have to use gcolor2 sometimes as well. It's not optimal, and in fact I hate it, but it's the least sucky 'color wheel' thing I've found so far.

This is currently my minimal xmonad and xmobar look:

If you want, have a look at my .xmobarrc.
I'm also experimenting with GUI - openbox and cairo-dock:

I think I stole the wallpaper from someone here.. Don't remember.

very nice, can you also spare your xmonad.hs?

Changed few things...

I got this setup exactly as I want it and now I don't have anything more to tweak
Maybe I'll go off trying some new WMs...

Yea, I got that too. Now that school has ended and I don't have anything more to tweak, I'm at loss for what to do on my computer

before you go........
how are you pulling off a no-window-decoration with openbox? is it a theme?

Configure your <applications> in rc.xml:

<applications>
   <application name="*">
      <decor>no</decor>
   </application>
   ...
</applications>
