What's your go-to syntax color scheme? Everything that

Hello sir I use gruvbox
thank you, come again

>>60716734
gruvbox works for me. Some people hate it because it looks like mud.

You seem to have a font-rendering issue

Base16 along with a terminal base16 color replacement for consistency. Usually London tube but I change it up from time to time.

>>60716786
is a london tube a hollow cylinder?

I have no fucking idea I just like the bright as fuck colors. I program mostly via color when I get into it.

When you read books do you need the sentences hilighted too?

I should probably make comments and strings a different color but I haven't gotten to it

Stupidest fucking thing I've heard in weeks

Just because it's harder to use doesn't mean it's harder to use for good reason. Quite literally nothing is different except your ability to parse what you're trying to change.

You aren't a "brainlet" because you don't manually perform all the arithmetic in your head and calculate hexadecimal codes to make characters appear on the screen. Nor is that even an argument.

Eliminating redundancy is the fundamental reason computers exist and what they accomplish.

You want to take the log out of your eye before you call someone else stupid?

>>60718356
A book is an intangible piece of literature.

If the words in a book dictated how a machine functioned and it was your job to change these words to make it work then yes I would prefer to have certain words be highlighted

Atom has the best default color scheme. The default color scheme on Sublime looks like literal shit, so I change it to Blackboard and then change the background and select-highlight color in the config. I just take a color picker and copy the background and select-highlight color from gedit's Oblivion color scheme.

>>60718485
Anyone who doesn't use syntax highlighting is better at parsing code than you by definition

>>60718440
Should he not be? Is he more efficient without syntax highlighting?

Rob Pike has been programming since computers were made of wood and had pixels the size of post-it notes. I think these things are a little lost on him

>>60718519
Yeah (no you retard) and Usain Bolt is a faster runner than me but that doesn't mean it's not stupid to run to the grocery store whenever you need something to eat

>>60718547
I mean he's mostly more efficient because he wrote his text editor/"IDE" specifically for himself ( acme as seen in
>>60717794 )

>>60718547
Sprinting to the grocery store would be a great way to get in some exercise in your daily life

>>60718601
He'd still be faster if words were highlighted

Why do you want to argue with this

>>60718618
>He'd still be faster if words were highlighted

No because he can actually read code and some annoying colors would not help

>>60718618
There is no inherent advantage to highlighting code, it is a shortcut for people who do not want to learn to read it themselves.

Your problem here is that you are bad at reading code, and so from your point of view, so must everyone else.

>ITT spergs who have nothing better to do with their time arguing about fucking syntax coloring

Why am I on this website

>>60718644
Syntax highlighting is juvenile. When I was a child, I was taught arithmetic using colored rods (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuisenaire_rods). I grew up and today I use monochromatic numerals.

zenburn or solarized dark

>>60718644
Oh, so the colors make it harder to read.

Here's an argument of some kind.

The problem is that you didn't evaluate how or why this was supposed to be the case. Please justify how variables being a different color makes it harder to read.

>>60718673
>There is no inherent advantage to highlighting code
Reading it more easily

What, are you saying it's not like that for everyone? It describes fundamental rules of visual hierarchy and how the brain works.

>Your problem here is that you are bad at reading code, and so from your point of view, so must everyone else.
Yeah and a chef is just "bad at finding ingredients" because he doesn't keep everything in the same cupboard. And him being bad at finding things also means it's a bad idea to be efficient.

Fuck off you brainlet pseud

>>60718785
Link me this research into human visual processing that suggests that color coding types of symbols helps anyone do anything. What is this based on?

>>60718829
This really needs to be broken down to you?

Things in your field of vision of different description stand out to you. Stop signs are bright red octogons because they stand out from everything else and you can instantly recognise them. Lions are light beige so they can blend into the grassy fields and sneak up on prey, this is the equivalent of all text standing out in the same way

As for the specific colors, you can mostly just do what they want but some of them follow rules of some kind. Errors are red because red immediately shouts "danger" and stands out to you, types tend to be somewhat close to the background but still dark because they dictate something but what that actually is which is way more important is highlighted as something else

>>60718356
not him, but i tend to do that in my mind since i lose my spot more often than i'd like.

>>60718893
You're just making assumptions, you're saying it's inherently useful entirely on assumptions. Well I am too, and I don't think anything but maybe red for error is useful. Even then I'd argue it's overall misleading and distracting and you'll get better at writing code without it because only seeing errors after pressing compile is some serious negative conditioning

>>60719057
Very elegant. Syntax name?

It's opening myself up to complete mockery, but I just use the default in VS Code. Because it's decent and I just get down to work instead of worrying too much. Interested to see what others use to try though.

I thought the whole editor including the colors and the font were hardcoded.

I like github. Been using a white (well grey) background for a while now but I'm thinking of returning to a dark background. Problem is a lack of consistency - you switch from your editor to your browser and you're blinded.

>>60720560
There's some allocimage() calls in acme.c where the colors are set, replace them with
>allocimage(display, Rect(0,0,1,1), RGBA32, 1, 0x002b36FF);
for example to make them RGB. Change the value between 0x and FF to the RGB value of your choice, play around and see what's what

>I thought the whole editor including the colors and the font were hardcoded

A lot of Plan 9 stuff is, under the assumption that, combined with well written code and easy to understand programmed interfaces, that editing your system is fast and easy. Even on Linux, editing plan9port is for the most part fast and easy

>>60722497
>>60720560

Oh but the font isn't hardcoded that would be ridiculous. On 9front it looks at $font but on Linux you just have to settle for using -f

Dude, we're talking about syntax highlighting. As in, programming. It is beyond trivial, it's barely more complex than a config file with badly worded entries. If you're here, it shouldn't even seem difficult. If it does, go away

Hadn't tried it with python yet, but it's great for tcl and lisp
There are also syntax highlighting modes which give the same word the same color across all your code. I think in vim there are context-highlighting plugins which do this, but I moved to spacemacs and it serves its purpose.

Monokai has a brown background color and looks like literal shit, you all are just too lazy to change the Sublime default color scheme

Also Monokai doesnt highlight tabs with unsaved changes in Sublime, Blackboard does. Just change the background color of Blackboard in the config file and you have a better color scheme
