Sublime Text Color Scheme RSE ============================= This is Ralf S. Engelschall (RSE)'s discreet color scheme for the Sublime Text editor (http://www.sublimetext.com/). It uses just 4 colors: "white" for the background, "black" as the default text color, "blue" for all language constructs (keywords and punctation characters) and "brown" for all literals (strings, numbers, etc). Nothing more, nothing less! For a very elegant coding environment, my preferred setup is: 1. Install Sublime Text 2/3
http://www.sublimetext.com/
(the editor itself) 2. Install Package Control for Sublime Text 2/3:
http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/package_control
(the package manager for the editor) 3. Install theme "Soda Light" via Package Control
http://buymeasoda.github.io/soda-theme/
(the GUI theme for the editor) 4. Install this color schema "Color Scheme - RSE" via Package Control
https://github.com/rse/sublime-scheme-rse
(the color scheme for the text area) 5. Install the DejaVu font family
http://dejavu-fonts.org/
(the font for the text area) 6. Use the Sublime Text 2/3 User Preferences below, which enables the theme, color scheme and font and especially reduces the total line height (very important as for coding we need the maximum number of lines on the screen). User Preferences ---------------- { "theme": "Soda Light.sublime-theme", "soda_classic_tabs": true, "color_scheme": "Packages/Color Scheme - RSE/RSE.tmTheme", "font_face": "DejaVu Sans Mono", "line_padding_bottom": -2, "line_padding_top": 0 } Screenshot ---------- ![Screenshot](screenshot.png "Sublime Text 2 with Color Scheme RSE and theme Soda Light") My Favorite Sublime Plugins --------------------------- As I'm regularily asked which Sublime Text plugins I install via Package Control for additional functionality in addition to the above basic style, here is my list of recommended plugins: - Additional Interface Functionality: - SideBarEnhancements (sidebar addition: filesystem operations) - Terminal (sidebar addition: open terminal here) - WordCount (statusbar addition: word count) - Editing: - Auto Autocomplete (source code completion) - Vintage (Vi mode - for Sublime Text 2 only: already ships with it) - Vintagous (Vi mode - for Sublime Text 3 only: the better Vintage) - VintageEx (Ex mode for Vi mode) - Source Code: - SublimeLinter (source code linting) - SublimeCodeIntel (source code lookup/completion) - Version Control Systems: - SVN (general Subversion tool integration) - Git (general Git tool integration) - SideBarGit (sidebar addition: Git commands) - Git Gutter (gutter addition: Git diff-style information) - GitConfig (.gitconfig file support) - Build Tools: - Grunt - Ant - Additional Languages and Macros: - MarkdownEditing - TypeScript - TypeScript Compiler - LaTeXTools - LESS - HTML5 - Emmet License ------- Copyright © 2012-2013 Ralf S.
