Installation

1. Copy colors/quietlight.vim to:

   ~/.vim/colors/quietlight.vim

   or alternatively, use a plugin manger such as vim-plug, NeoBundle, Vundle, or Pathogen.

2. Terminal color modes:

   The colorscheme works in both true color mode and 256-color mode.

   True color terminal mode

   To use the true color mode, make sure to set this in your ~/.vimrc:

   set termguicolors

   This works in both true color terminals and GUI Vim clients such as GVim or MacVim.

   Tip: for some reason, Vim with termguicolors set inside Tmux might have a different background color (a little off) than the original background color. To work around this issue, please make sure you have this set -g terminal-overrides ",xterm-256color:Tc" in your tmux.conf file.

   256-color terminal mode

   To use the colorscheme in a 256-color terminal, add this to your ~/.vimrc:

   set t_Co=256

3. Add to ~/.vimrc:

   set background=light
   colorscheme quietlight

Extras

• The colorscheme has a special group to highlight Vim popup window called InfoPopup. To use the group, add the following to .vimrc:

  set completeopt=menu,menuone,popup               "enable popup window
  set completepopup=highlight:InfoPopup,border:off "configure the highlight group
