description
This color scheme is loosely based off of desert.vim (vimscript #105) mixed with some of slate.vim. I took the darker background from slate, replaced a lot of the desert colors with a earthy/brown color scheme, changed the window borders to be black, and folders are a light orange instead of the default blue.

Overall it's a coherent, earthy color scheme with minimal visual distraction. I have used it for coding in C, PHP, C#, HTML, and Lisp so far.

Note that I've only really used it with gvim, it may look like crap in 256 colors. I'm new to vim in general, so any suggestions on how to port this to 256 would be greatly appreciated.

The name "void" has no special meaning, it was the first thing that came to mind when I named it.

void.vim 2.2 2014-02-18 7.0 andrew lyon Adding Python-specific operator highlighting (thanks to Max Weiß for the update).
void.vim 2.1 2012-03-23 7.0 andrew lyon Updated Pmenu and PmenuSel for use with FuzzyFinder (or other menu-based plugins). It was hideous before and I can't believe I let it be for this long. Enjoy.
void.vim 2.0 2012-03-22 7.0 andrew lyon The new release of this fixes some stuff I would label issues: Identifiers displayed as normal text, Statements/Types not fitting with the overall theme, etc. This new release is a bit of a larger update as far as the color palate goes, so be sure to hang onto your original version if the new one is too much of a change. Personally, I think it's a lot nicer and easier on the eyes.
void.vim 1.3 2010-11-22 7.0 andrew lyon Modified TODO/NOTE code comment highlighting to be a bit easier to read without sacrificing the "HEY LOOK AT ME!!" effect.
void.vim 1.2 2010-11-21 7.0 andrew lyon Ran dos2unix filter to fix errors some people were getting when sourcing.
void.vim 1.1 2010-11-20 6.0 andrew lyon Made the "khaki" Statement highlight "darkkhaki" which is a bit easier to read.
void.vim 1 2010-11-19 6.0 andrew lyon Initial upload
