I really love the Tomorrow Theme - https://github.com/chriskempson/tomorrow-theme

Tomorrow (and base16, its next incarnation) are awesome. But there's one thing I like about Pastie more: the way it highlights literal strings (and heredocs and herestrings)...

I think these are all quite nice, however... am I the only person out there who likes comments to show up in a nice bright color (my preference, usually a bright terminal green). The faded comment look that most of these share is really hard for me to read.

I was gonna make a similar comment. All the themes I see are geared to be anti comment because of the lack of distinction in colors.

Right now I use the Tomorrow Night theme which seems to be okay but I would prefer to have a good light color scheme (the longest I ever used one was Espresso Soda theme).

Install instructions would be helpful.

I know, right? How is this missing? For Sublime on Ubuntu: Create folder NewThemes in ~/.config/sublime-text-2/Packages/NewThemes and dump the files from the repository in there. Then Preferences > Color Scheme > NewThemes > [choose]

Doing that just messes up my default font. And am not sure what the default font is to get it back.

Ah should have been better if via Package control

Earlier quoted context omitted.

... Well, I did say "call me lazy". Sorry, I have half a dozen color schemes in different packages that I switch between, a custom theme, several language plugins and more. It's enough work to re-install them through the package manager. I could put them all in a folder and sync that across machines, but then they don't get auto-updated, and I'd have to use non-portable symlinks and would still have to manually updat…

So... I did :) May I ask why you have multiple color schemes? It seems like a pretty easy solution...

It sounds stupid, but I have one that I'm very accustomed to to write my C, another for Golang and then one that looks much better for editting XML(-like) documents.

Install ST2 Package Manager ( http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/package_control ) Cmd+Shift+P -> "Install..." -> [name of theme] -> [enter] -> done. (editted) Ugh, apparently these are not in the package manger. Call me lazy but I'm not going to clone these on all four of the machines I use ST2 on. (The "ugh" seems unappreciative, that was more due to my incorrect assumption; don't mean to sound ungrateful, a couple…

I use a portable version of Sublime 2 synced via Dropbox. It works pretty well. One copy of settings/themes/snippets.
