I often find myself wanting to change just something little in a colorscheme, but I don't want to edit the original file. I tried putting my change in ~/.vim/after/colors/blah.vim
, but that doesn't work for me.
Example, I want to change the CursorLine highlight in BusyBee.vim..
~/.vim/colors/BusyBee.vim
I create the file ~/.vim/after/colors/BusyBee.vim
and add this:
hi CursorLine guibg=#000000 ctermbg=Black cterm=none
However, I don't see the change. Of course it works if I change the line in the original BusyBee.vim, but like I said I'd prefer not to do that.
Doing...
:colo Busy<TAB>
Shows me...
BusyBee BusyBee
Have a look at AfterColors.vim, it will enable you to to use the ~/.vim/after/colors/BusyBee.vim
method.
