**me:** Hi everyone, my name is Franco and I'm addicted to colorschemes

**everyone else:** *Hi Franco*

Vim colorschemes
================

one stop shop for vim colorschemes.

this was [originally] harvested from vim.org. only colorschemes downloaded in a single `.vim`
file are included.

for hacking on vim.org harvesting see the branch [prep](https://github.com/flazz/vim-colorschemes/tree/prep).

Installation
------------

Basic install - very simple (*nix or cygwin install)

mkdir ~/.vim
git clone https://github.com/flazz/vim-colorschemes.git ~/.vim

if you [use vim + pathogen](http://vimcasts.org/episodes/synchronizing-plugins-with-git-submodules-and-pathogen/)

git submodule add https://github.com/flazz/vim-colorschemes.git ~/.vim/bundle/colorschemes

if you [use vim + vundle](https://github.com/gmarik/vundle)

" add to .vimrc
Plugin 'flazz/vim-colorschemes'
:PluginInstall

if you aren't so clever just get all the files in `colors/*.vim` into
`~/.vim/colors`

# after downloading; unpacking; cd'ing
cp colors/* ~/.vim/colors

Using
-----

To change the colorscheme of Vim, add to your `.vimrc`:

colorscheme nameofcolorscheme

For example, to change the color scheme to wombat:

colorscheme wombat

To change to Molokai:

colorscheme molokai

Inside Vim, you use:

:colorscheme molokai

Previewing colorschemes
-----------------------
There are quite a few colorschemes in this. To preview them on your live code inside of Vim, checkout [this page from the vim wikia](http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Switch_color_schemes) and [this repo for easy installation](https://github.com/felixhummel/setcolors.vim).
