A dark color scheme for Vim/Neovim based off the [Material Pale Night][materialLink] color scheme. Much of the work is based on the lovely [onedark.vim][onedark] color scheme.

## Installation
Using [vim-plug][vimplug] (modify this to work with your Vim package manager of choice):

```vim
Plug 'drewtempelmeyer/palenight.vim'
```

## Usage

In your wonderfully organized Vim (`~/.vimrc`) or Neovim (`.config/nvim/init.vim`) configuration, place the following two lines:

```vim
set background=dark
colorscheme palenight
```

To configure lightline, add the following line:

```vim
let g:lightline = { 'colorscheme': 'palenight' }
```

To configure airline, add the following line:

```vim
let g:airline_theme = "palenight"
```

### True Colors

To provide the best user experience possible, I recommend enabling true colors. To experience the blissfulness of your editor's true colors, place this in your `.vimrc` or `~/.config/nvim/init.vim` file:

```vim
if (has("nvim"))
"For Neovim 0.1.3 and 0.1.4 < https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/2198 >
let $NVIM_TUI_ENABLE_TRUE_COLOR=1
endif

"For Neovim > 0.1.5 and Vim > patch 7.4.1799 < https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/61be73bb0f965a895bfb064ea3e55476ac175162 >
"Based on Vim patch 7.4.1770 (`guicolors` option) < https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/8a633e3427b47286869aa4b96f2bfc1fe65b25cd >
" < https://github.com/neovim/neovim/wiki/Following-HEAD#20160511 >
if (has("termguicolors"))
set termguicolors
endif
```

### Italics

Italics are a fantastic way to improve the appearance of your code. Italics will do what they can, but, as they say, "you can't polish a 💩." (Although MythBusters busted this). Digressing here, so place this into your config:

```vim
" Italics for my favorite color scheme
let g:palenight_terminal_italics=1
```

### Overriding Colors

Overriding palenight's colors are supported through setting the
`g:palenight_color_overrides` variable. See [palenight.vim](./autoload/palenight.vim)
for a list of colors that may be overriden. You must provide `gui`, `cterm`,
and `cterm16` values for each.

Example: Overriding the background color to pure black
```vim
let g:palenight_color_overrides = {
\ 'black': { 'gui': '#000000', "cterm": "0", "cterm16": "0" },
\}
```
