Here’s a little something I give to my online Ruby and Python students every year.
This a great color scheme—light and dark versions, both readable and easy on the eyes, available for Vim, Emacs, gnome-terminal, Terminal.app and lots more.
The gnome-terminal version is tricky to install, since gnome-terminal lacks a decent configuration gui. Check this link for accurate instructions. Terminal.app is a little tricky, too tricky for Mac hipsters, so I suggest that they should pass on this one—if Steve wanted you to have Solarized, he would have included it in OS X.
On second thought, I’d rather keep this color scheme all to myself. It’s so sweet that I’d hate to see everyone else using it. Oh well, it’s too late. I’ve already pushed the “Publish” button.
