Changing a color

[Matthew Cushing]

First off, thank you for this incredible color scheme. It blows me away, I've been using it for quite some time now and don't think I will ever change.

But onto what I came here for. I assumed I could just change or add a color by editing the deus.vim file in the colors folder. I have never tried editing a plugin before but assumed it was as simple as this so correct me if I'm wrong please. Anyways, the reason for this was that I added a plugin called vim-cpp-enhanced-highlight which adds functionality to highlight certain keywords in c++ that didn't before. It works great, except when it comes to functions. The bold green color used as much as it is just doesn't appeal to me.

So I decided to change it. I found function name set to deusGreenBold under syntax highlighting after I didn't find anything under the C++ specific area. I then went to where deusGreenBold was defined and decided I really liked this dark bluish color here:

Testing the hex values you have set for the colors I assumed it was either Fg0 or Fg2. So I decided to define a bold Fg0 and test it. Under "deus Hi Groups" I added the following:
call s:HL('deusFg0Bold', s:fg0, s:none, s:bold)
I then changed the Function Name color to:
hi! link Function deusFg0Bold
I saved the file and reloaded my cpp files and they stayed the same color. I tried changing it to deusYellowBold and nothing changed. I tried updating plugins through vundle with :PluginUpdate and nothing changed. I've tried resourcing my vimrc, dues.vim, my cpp files. I have no idea what to do :(

I would really appreciate any help you have to offer.

Thanks!

MrCush,

I am glad to hear you are enjoying the color scheme.

Thank you for your feedback. I will look into the highlighting issues and try to create a fix. I have done this sort of thing before.

I will try to ship this today.

Please let me know if you run into any more issues.

Best,

Avery

MrCush,

please try adding the following to you .vimrc after you set the colorscheme.

hi! link Function deusBlue

or

hi! link Function deusAqua

Which ever you perfer.

This should change the color.
