I've followed the instructions for installing Solarized on iTerm 2, on my new OSX Yosemite machine. It looks as though the background and basic colours are being applied, and $TERM
produces xterm-256color
.
However, everything is very monochrome. How can I get iTerm to highlight the output in a more helpful way?
ls -G
. It seems that solarized is a set of color schemes. IT doesn't make your commands do colorization. You may need to check yourvim
settings as wellls -al
would be colorized in a useful way. I've followed the instructions for setting up Solarized with vim here: ethanschoonover.com/solarized/vim-colors-solarized - I now have nice colours in vim, but I still have a very monochrome GUI.
