create user.micro merge to each colorscheme without create them under user colorscheme folder

[vincentaxhe]

I have implement org highlight with syntax/org.yaml

filetype: org

detect:
    filename: "\\.org$"

rules:
      # headlines
    - headline:  "^\\*+ .*"
    - priority:  "^\\*+ (\\[.+\\] |[A-Z]+ )+"

      # comment
    - comment: "# .*"

      # tables
    - table: "[[:space:]]*\\|.+\\|"

      # bold italic delete underline mono
    - emphasize: "\\*[^ *][^*]*[^ *]\\*"
    - italic: "/[^ ].*[^ ]/"
    - delete: "\\+[^ ].*[^ ]\\+"
    - underline: "_[^ ].*[^ ]_"
    - mono: "[=~][^ =~].*[^ =~][^=~]"

      # lists
    - list: "^([[:space:]]*[+-] |^[[:space:]]*[0-9a-zA-Z]+[).] )(\\[.\\] )?"

      # links
    - link: "\\[(\\[[^]]+\\]){1,2}\\]"

      # urls
    - url: "https?://[^ )>]+"

      # block
    - block:
        start: "^#\\+begin_.*"
        end: "^#\\+end_[^ ]*"
        rules: []
    - block: "^#\\+.*"

and create colorscheme/user.micro

color-link headline "bold #282828,#E6DB74"
color-link priority "#CB4B16,#282828"
color-link table "#66D9EF,#282828"
color-link emphasize "bold #AE81FF,#282828"
color-link italic "#E6DB74,#282828"
color-link mono "#ABE674,#282828"
color-link delete "#505050,#282828"
color-link underline "#BDE6AD,#282828"
color-link list "#F92672,#282828"
color-link link "#CB4B16,#282828"
color-link url "bold #CB4B16,#282828"
color-link block "#C6EF74,#282828"

and copy every buildin colorscheme file to micro user colorscheme folder, then append 'include "user"' to every .micro file. is there a way to avoid create so much duplicated files and merge user.micro to any colorscheme selected, maybe an option?

Yes, I made a plugin for myself that does exactly that. Allows you to have a main colorscheme and add a list of includes at the end. It is a work in progress/hack (colorschemes need a rework in micro) but it works. If you are still interested, I can release it and you can try it.

yeah, I want to look into the approach

@vincentaxhe, the plugin never worked. It only worked for me because while trying to come up with a solution, I left settings.json in a weird state that reset the colorscheme selected always at startup (I can not reproduce it anymore).

When I tested it again for publishing, it did not fail. I suppose you get hit with the message "'concat-colorscheme' is not a valid colorscheme.", at least when you open the second instance.

The solution is to create a colorscheme with the includes, like the plugin did at runtime, and forget about the plugin. If you want to change the colorscheme, you will have to do it manually.

Your micro colorscheme should look like this:

include "atom-dark"
include "special-color1"
include "special-color2"

I'm sorry, I just did not care it anymore, I have done the work, it works and reliable.
