janus Can't replace color themes

I was trying to use the current jellybeans color theme from the Github repo, but placing it in ~/.janus didn't override the one included with janus. In particular, the sample-pack. I can't seem to disable it either.

Assuming the jellybeans repo is in ~/.janus as a submodule you can drop the linked snippet in ~/.gvimrc.after after you specify your colorscheme.

I'm not certain any color schemes are being loaded from ~/.janus. I was attempting the same thing, and changed the name to see if overriding was the issue. I still have to source the file manually to load the colors. This could just be my lack of understanding of Vim, though.

@malefactor I think your right. I installed a new color scheme called paintbox in ~/.janus/paintbox/paintbox.vim and when I open MacVim I get:

Error detected while processing /Users/ryan/.vimrc.after:
line    1:
E185: Cannot find color scheme paintbox

Error detected while processing /Users/ryan/.gvimrc.after:
line    1:
E185: Cannot find color scheme paintbox

Any plugins in ~/.janus, including colors, need to be in the proper folder structure for pathogen to load them. In the example with paintbox it should be ~/.janus/paintbox/colors/paintbox.vim
