I see a comment on many themes "generated by vim2theme"
Where can I find such a tool in order to generate my own themes?
According to the ChangeLog I wrote such a script in 2010 to convert a bunch of vim themes. It is gone, but it is little effort to write a little script again. Might be worthwile regarding the huge collection of vim styles.
Ah, bummer. I noticed a bunch of files in this repo and accross github with that same auto-generated comment and figured it was public somewhere. Thanks for the clarification :)
It was a very simple script which would not work e.g. with color names. I add this as reference to remind myself: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Xterm256_color_names_for_console_Vim
I've managed to find a copy of the theme2to3.py script, from a very old version of Highlight (v3.5-1) on the internet (not available on GitHub):
- http://ftp.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/dag/redhat/el6/en/i386/rpmforge/RPMS/
And have published it as a Gist:
- https://gist.github.com/tajmone/2d6058f108032ac913f98c42d5e28e23
But haven't managed to find vim2theme so far. I actually came across some themes recently generated via vim2theme; for example "Dracula", 3 years ago, by @jvandijk:
- https://gist.github.com/jvandijk/395f4a41cc56955fee0a
... so chances are that there are still copies of it floating around. I've asked @jvandijk if he has a copy of it to share, so let's cross fingers and wait.
The new release contains 107 new Base16 themes: http://andre-simon.de/zip/download.php Some of these are also available in vim.
