Solarized Colorscheme for NetBeans

==============================



Developed by Ethan Schoonover 

Ported to NetBeans by Brian Fenton [https://github.com/fentie]



See the [homepage for the Solarized colorscheme][solarized] for versions for 

Vim, popular terminal emulators and other applications.



If you have come across this colorscheme via the [NetBeans-only repository on 

github][netbeans-solarized-github], see the link above to the Solarized homepage or

visit the [github repository for Solarized][solarized-github].

Installation

------------



1. Download the NetBeans Solarized repo. Unpack the downloaded file, then manually create a 

   new zip file containing the "config" folder.



2. Open NetBeans, select Preferences, then Import in the lower left. Navigate

   to the zip file you created, check the Netbeans\_Solarized\_Dark and/or 

   Netbeans\_Solarized\_Light box under the Fonts & Colors section. 



3. Restart NetBeans (just to be on the safe side). 



4. To use the new themes, go to Preferences, Fonts & Colors, and select either 

   of the two new themes from the Profile dropdown, and hit OK.



Known Issues

------------



Do not use the archive program built into Windows XP to create the zip file

in step 1. It does not support file paths longer than a certain length, and

that results in some missing preferences. If you are using Windows XP, use

a third party archiver like 7zip (free).



Which Variation?

----------------



Normally there would be a discussion of 16- vs. 256-color versions of Solarized

here, but I've only ported the 16-color version. This color scheme is also not as 

flashy/rich as the Vim ones due to lack of granularity in the NetBeans theme 

preferences.



The Values

----------



The NetBeans color preferences UI supports RGB, HSB, and hex values. I prefer the

RGB versions, which I've copied below for reference. For the full list of colors

specified in other formats, see [the main Solarized home page][solarized]
