Base16 for Vim

Base16 Vim

See the Base16 repository for more information.
This theme was built with Base16 Builder.

Supports graphical Vim and console Vim.

Terminal Themes

For terminal Vim (non-gui) please ensure you are using a base16 terminal theme.

• iTerm2

Installation

To use the dark theme ensure set background=dark is present in your ~/.vimrc file. Otherwise Vim will use the light variation by default.

Add colorscheme base16-default to your ~/.vimrc.

Vundle

Add the following to your ~/.vimrc file.

Bundle 'chriskempson/base16-vim'

Manual

cd ~/.vim/colors
git clone git://github.com/chriskempson/base16-vim.git base16
cp base16/colors/*.vim .

265 colorspace

If using a Base16 terminal theme designed to keep the 16 ANSI colors intact (a "256" variation) and have sucessfully modified your 256 colorspace with base16-shell you'll need to add the following to your ~/.vimrc before the colorsheme declaration.

let base16colorspace=256  " Access colors present in 256 colorspace

This will cause vim to access the colours in the modified 256 colorpsace. Please do not enable this simply because you have a 256 color terminal as this will cause colors to be displayed incorrectly.
