h1. Aha! Nice name!

h2. How do I try it out?

Copy the @color-theme-almost-monokai.el@ file to your emacs plugin directory (if you have one), or simply drop it somewhere you know.

Lets say you place it in @~/foo@

Next, open your @.emacs@ file, and add to it:

(load-file "~/foo/color-theme-almost-monokai.el")
(color-theme-almost-monokai)

h2. What do I need?

• Emacs 21 or higher
• "Color Theme support":http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/ColorTheme

h2. Any license?
