256-color & 24-bit truecolor support
Example within a C++ file:
Example within an HTML file:
Vim Plug or other plugin managers:
Open your vim.rc files, and within the area of adding plugins, add
Plug: 'HenryNewcomer/vim-theme-papaya'.
Now scroll down past the plug#end() area and add:
colorscheme papaya
If using another plugin manager, such as Vundle, the steps are appropriately similar for the first part. The second part is the same. Just reference your plugin manager's manual for further assistance on what syntax to use for automatically installing plugins.
Linux/Mac OS) If on a Unix-based OS, simply clone/save this and place it in your
~/.vim/colors/ directory (assuming you haven't changed this path).
Next, open, your .vimrc file and add:
colorscheme papaya
Note that if you have a plugin manager and are using the manual installation,
you will most likely have to add the three commands after your plugin's closing
method. For example, if using Vim Plug, you'd add the lines after plug#end().
If your terminal has truecolor support, add the following to your .vimrc file. Alternatively, if you're using gvim, you shouldn't have to add this. This theme supports terminals with 256-color support, but was designed for truecolor.
if (has("termguicolors"))
set termguicolors
endif
While this theme is still a work-in-progress, I've made a version that
is more "blue-oriented," compared to the standard purple Papaya theme.
For anyone wishing to use the blue version, open your vimrc. Instead of
colorscheme papaya put:
colorscheme papaya
let g:papaya_gui_color='blue'
Most of the colors will be shared bewteen the different Papaya themes, hence why I'm not making the blue one it's own separate theme. Also note that this blue version is only for terminals that support truecolor. There aren't enough color variations to properly do the theme justice on 256-color terminals.
Since I plan to continue updating this theme in an effort to help support
additional filetypes, I've kept a copy of the original Papaya theme in
case anyone wants it. To use it, instead of putting colorscheme papaya
in your .vimrc file, put colorscheme papaya_original

I haven't tested this theme using every language that Vim supports, but most of the more popular ones should look good. If you notice any oddities or have any questions or suggestions, feel free to e-mail me at [email protected]
