A dark low-contrast Vim colorscheme for Terminal Vim and GUI Vim.
The idea behind Alduin was to create a dark colorscheme that combined warm yet soft colors for high readability with low distraction. Some of the features, and design cues pay homage to schemes like Jeet Sukumaran's Sorcerer, Ciaran McCreesh's Inkpot, as well as Romain Lafourcade's Apprentice, and Steve Losh's Badwolf.
To make alduin your default colorscheme add this to your .vimrc:
colorscheme alduinAdd the following to your .vimrc to enable Alduin's darker version:
" Dark Version of Alduin
let g:alduin_Shout_Become_Ethereal = 1
colorscheme alduinIf you're finding yourself using the default alduin throughout the day and then at night you're enabling Ethereal mode; you might have the onset of Sanguinare Vampiris syndrome. Try adding let g:alduin_Contract_Vampirism = 1 to your vimrc. This will automatically enable Ethereal mode when you launch Vim after 5pm and then reset to the default alduin for the following morning. **Please note that this feature is experimental.
"Starts at 5pm - Ends at 7am
let g:alduin_Contract_Vampirism = 1
colorscheme alduinThis is will change the default MatchParen highlight group so that when your cursor is at a brace or parenthesis the matching set will be underlined in Ivory.
let g:alduin_Shout_Aura_Whisper = 1
colorscheme alduinThe screenshots of Alduin were made and tested using a default Vi IMproved 7.3 in iTerm 2.1.4 and the Vi IMproved 7.4 in the GUI MacVim app. Extended syntax for JavaScript provided by Jose Elera Campana's Plug-in vim-javascript-syntax. Enjoy!!
