Solarized for Gedit

Precision colors for machines and people - Now with more Gedit!


Solarized

Solarized was created by Ethan Schoonover and you can find out more about the design work that went into it on his project page. If you would like to use Solarized in editors other than Gedit or on your terminal, Ethan hosts the main repository which combines all the available ports in one place.

Solarized for Gedit

Solarized was initially ported for Gedit by Matthew Cantelon and can be found at http://github.com/mattcan/solarized-gedit.
