Here are some color schemes I’ve put together for Vim. Most of them just grew out of the fact that I’ve used previous IDEs and editors that have similar colors and I liked them. Hope you like them.

Eclipse Color Scheme

I created this color scheme based on the default colors of the eclipse development environment. Bellow are some screen shots of what it looks like with Vim script, Java and C++. Eclipse.vim

Taylon Silmer has some modifications to these base on the Tango color scheme, so if you like Eclipse be sure to check out Tango.vim.

Ocean Black 256 XTerm Color Scheme

This color scheme based on Chris Vertonghen’s Ocean Black color scheme. It is basically a conversion using a quick and dirty conversion using dither.pl a Perl script I wrote to convert schemes to 256 xterm. Bellow are some screen shots of what it looks like with Vim script, Java and C++. When sending questions or comments please keep in mind that this theme will not work on 8/16 color terminals and I have not tested it in 88 color terminals. Also I am not in any way a unix/linux expert and had to endure many headaches recompiling Vim and messing with TERMCap settings trying to get the 256 term to work (since I use Putty on a XP machine and SSH to a Mac OS X box) so I wish you luck.

Symfony Color Scheme

I created this color scheme based on the Documenation of Symfony PHP Framework. This color scheme supports a 256 color terminal too, but it hasn’t been heavily tested. Bellow are some screen shots of what it looks like with Vim script, Java and PHP. Symfony.vim
