Typewriter ▎

A minimalistic vim and gvim colorscheme inspired by the great iA Writer editor. This repo contains the light (typewriter.vim) and dark (typewriter-dark.vim) versions.

Installation

You can use your vim plugin manager of choice
Or manually
- Clone this repo.
- Copy colors/*.vim to ~/.vim/colors/

Usage

To enable this colorscheme, set in your .vimrc file:

  colorscheme typewriter
  " or typewriter-night

Extras

If you want a closer feel to iA Writer install

goyo.vim for focus mode.
limelight.vim for line highlight.

and add this lines to vimrc:

  " Activate FOCUS mode with F12
  nmap <F12> :Goyo <bar> Limelight!!<CR>"


  " Change the cursor from block to i-beam in INSERT mode
  let &t_SI = "\e[5 q"
  let &t_EI = "\e[1 q"
  augroup myCmds
    au!
    autocmd VimEnter * silent !echo -ne "\e[1 q"
  augroup END
