SLATE

A tmux theme — dark and light, auto-switching, installable via TPM.

WHAT IS THIS?

slate applies a dark and light palette to your tmux session: status bar,
windows, panes, messages, popups, menus, and copy mode. Both dark and light
variants are included.

Auto-detects your macOS system appearance by default.
Toggle at any time with prefix + T.

INSTALL

Using TPM — add to ~/.tmux.conf:

  set -g @plugin 'adarshba/slate'

Then prefix + I to install.

OPTIONS

  @slate_variant   "auto" | "dark" | "light"   default: auto

  set -g @slate_variant 'dark'

  auto: follows macOS system appearance (dark → dark, light → light).
        Falls back to light on non-macOS systems.

KEYBIND

  prefix + T   toggle dark ↔ light instantly
