Tomorrow terminal color scheme

Suraj N. Kurapati


I took the TomorrowNight and TomorrowNightEighties terminal color schemes from Chris Kempson’s Tomorrow theme and remixed them, per my taste, for visual harmony and readability in dark hours. Behold!

the color scheme

UNIX manual page

To use this color scheme in hterm, open the nassh extension’s settings page, open Chrome Developer Tools, and then run the following snippet in the console:

term_.prefs_.set("background-color", "#2d2d2d");
term_.prefs_.set("foreground-color", "#cccccc");
term_.prefs_.set("cursor-color", "rgba(174,175,173, 0.5)"); /* #aeafad */
term_.prefs_.set("color-palette-overrides", ["#000000", "#f2777a", "#99cc99",
"#de935f", "#81a2be", "#cc99cc", "#94CCCC", "#515151", "#666666", "#f2777a",
"#99cc99", "#f0c674", "#81a2be", "#cc99cc", "#94CCCC", "#393939"]);

To use this color scheme in Rxvt or XTerm, save the following snippet to a file such as ~/.Xdefaults and then run xrdb -merge on that file to apply it. Any terminals launched thereafter will use this color scheme, but not existing ones.
