Zenburn themes
Here is a list
of my
Zenburn themes and tweaks, and a description of how I use
them. From the above screenshot; Emacs theme
and rxvt-unicode colors were already available on
the Zenburn home
page. Those were the two most important to me, but I had to color
everything else to really benefit from it's low-contrast color
scheme.
1. Starting with the awesome window manager theme, it
is now available on a number of different places. Maybe it would be
best to grab it from the
awesome wiki
page. Note that from awesome 3.4 it will be a part of the
standard distribution.
2. Alpine is my mailer of choice so a theme for it was
one of the first I did, take a look at
my .pinerc
for the color setup. I also have
a gallery
dedicated to it so you can see how various parts of Alpine look
using those colors.
3. I was interested in having Zenburn in the console too, but
didn't want to use ctheme, so I came up with a workaround
in my shell init
file.
4. I made a very basic
Zenburn vimperator
color scheme. Mostly based on the color-theme-zenburn for
Emacs, so that the modeline/statusbar and command lines match on my
system. Why would I use Vimperator? See
my vimperator
setup for Emacs users.
5. Recently I was testing a new terminal
emulator, ROXTerm, and wrote
a zenburn
theme in the process.
6. Emacs
Zenburn theme is used trough the ColorTheme package. It
has faces for many modes but didn't have any org-mode
faces. I patched
color-theme-zenburn.el to include org-mode faces and I submitted
the patch to the theme author. Note that it took a while but
eventually got included in the standard theme.
7. I still use many X apps like xmessage, xman, xclipboard,
xdiary... which also use colors from
Zenburn, my
.Xdefaults has settings for them and a good number of other apps
too.
