Configuring highlight of type "@variable"

[hdemers]

First, thank you for such a nice colorscheme! Really well done. I especially like the way we can easily configure it using the highlight option:

require('solarized').setup {
    highlights = function (colors, colorhelper)
        local darken = colorhelper.darken
        local lighten = colorhelper.lighten
        local blend = colorhelper.blend

        return {
            LineNr = { fg = c.base1, bg = c.base02 },
            CursorLineNr = { bg = c.base02 },
            CursorLine = { bg = c.base02 },
            Function = { italic = false },
            Visual = { bg = c.cyan },
        }
    end
}

I'd like to know what's your recommended approach to configure highlights that start with an @ sign, like @variable? Thanks again.

You enclose a string within square brackets with the name of the highlight group you want to customize, for example:

require('solarized').setup {
    highlights = function ()
        return {
          ['@character.printf'] = { link = '@keyword' },
        }
    end
}

Gotcha. I should have mentioned that I actually tried that, and it appeared to work, in the sense that the highlight was changed, but it was reported by :highlight as the following, assuming I did:

require('solarized').setup {
    highlights = function ()
        return {
          ['@function.builtin'] = { link = 'Special' },
        }
    end
}

Is that how it should be?

I will take a look later, but links have high priority even if there are guifg or guibg colors. Nothing to worry about.
