Vim

Setup

Install

Install thcon.vim with your preferred plugin manager. For example, under vim-plug:

 " ~/.vimrc
 call plug#begin()
+  Plug 'theme-controller/thcon.vim', { 'tag': 'v0.5.0' }
 call plug#end()

Load

At the bottom of your .vimrc, replace your colorscheme statement with commands that load your thcon-managed settings and listen for changes:

 " ~/.vimrc
 " ...
 set number
 set laststatus=2

-colorscheme evening
+" Load dynamic config file
+call thcon#load()
+" Listen for theme switches and source the appropriate file
+call thcon#listen()

Create configs

Write a pair of small config files, one for dark-mode settings and one for light-mode (by default ~/dark.thcon.vimrc and ~/light.thcon.vimrc):

echo "colorscheme evening" > ~/dark.thcon.vimrc
echo "colorscheme morning" > ~/light.thcon.vimrc

Advanced Usage

Since those files are sourced by each vim instance, they can contain any arbitrary Vimscript you'd like. Consider changing statusline themes, adjusting indent levels, or whatever other settings you'd like.

Configuration
