Colors will not match

[adam-beck]

I have been trying to configure the colors for quite a while now to match the ones in the screenshot. Most of the colors appear to be showing correctly (with background=dark at least). However, it appears that the syntax groups are not configured. Now, I understand this is unrelated to mango but I'd really like to match the screenshots. I was wondering what vim javascript syntax file was being used. I have tried default, pangloss/vim-javascript, and jelera/vim-javascript-syntax.

For instance, inside of pangloss/vim-javascript it sets the prototype keywoard to the Special syntax group (Special ==> .Pink) which does not match the screenshot. Has anybody been able to reproduce the colors exactly. They do not look as good otherwise.

I use pangloss/vim-javascript I believe the screenshots are pre-prototype being changed to Special. You can always modify the vim-javascript file yourself. I'll make sure to post up new screenshots of what it looks like.

Well that answers my question. Thank you very much. It looks like the javascript syntax file has definitely changed. I will try to make some more screenshots for the repo. Also, have you modified your .Orange? It appears yours is much more yellow in the screenshots than mine. If I make screenshots for the repo I think they should be depicted as accurately as possible. Actually, all your colors seem to have more brightness than mine.

hmmm, not sure what that's due to. What terminal are you using?

Mine:

ArchLinux / XTerm
I've made minor modifications in my fork to reduce the brightness of a few colors.
My ViM and XTerm settings are available here.

btw this is the file we're screenshotting: https://github.com/jshint/fixmyjs/blob/master/lib/index.js

@saamalik if you send a PR I wouldn't mind merging in your changes.

@goatslacker sure--let me first make sure the corresponding brightness are applied to both GViM and terminal ViM.
