## About

The syntax highlighting in VimBlackboard is based on Blackboard (as one might
imagine), but with many of the colors changed to resemble the default Vim colors
used on dark terminals in various Linux distros from the late 90s and early
00s.

The widget theme is derived from [Soda Dark] (https://github.com/buymeasoda/soda-theme).
