I'm trying to use this color scheme on my Ubuntu system. I installed the package using Option 1 in GitHub, and modified .vimrc as instructed.It turns out that the colors displayed are different as in the author's website. C code has the following scheme according to the website:The C++ code has the following scheme on my own machine:How can I configure my .vimrc to have the same display effect as in the website? Or do I need to setup something on my terminal?-------------Edited-------gvim displays the color as expected. The only problem is vim on terminal
Ethan Schoonover's Solarized color scheme does not work as expected
vimrc;terminal;colorscheme;linux ubuntu
To be able to take advantage of that theme you must select an appropriate palette in your terminal settings as well.If you don't find that palette in your terminal settings (for instance if you are on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS) you must install a solarized Theme for the gnome-terminal first.Get the repo from gnome-terminal-colors-solarized on Githubcreate a new profile for your terminal to easily get rid of that color-scheme in case you don't like itswitch to that profilenow install the color-scheme with ./install.sh from the cloned git-repo, you will be asked two questions, be sure to answer the second one with the profile you just createdPlease select a Gnome Terminal profile:        1) Default        2) solarized        #? 2Now you are ready to install the vim-solarized theme.
