Scripts for setting the Solarized color set with MATE Terminal. To get nicely colored directory listings, you will also need to set up a dircolors solarised color theme.
This is a fork from gnome-terminal-solarized with minimal edits to enable it to work in MATE. Original porting done by michel-slm
Only the foreground, background, and highlight colors are different in the light and dark color sets, as one of the main ideas behind Ethan Schonoovers work is to use the same colors in the palette for both.
See the Solarized homepage for theory behind the colors, screenshots, details and colorscheme versions for Vim, Mutt, popular terminal emulators and other applications.
For the original works of Ethan Schoonover, visit the Solarized repository. The scripts for Gnome Terminal is maintained in Gnome Terminal Colors Solarized repository.
To be able to uninstall, we highly recommend that you create a new MATE Terminal profile, using the menus in MATE Terminal.
You need the dconf
command (if you run a recent MATE version). With Ubuntu,
this can be installed by running
$ sudo apt-get install dconf-cli
Then clone the repository and you can run the installation script:
$ git clone https://github.com/cledoux/mate-terminal-colors-solarized.git
$ cd mate-terminal-colors-solarized
$ ./install.sh
And just follow the instructions.
Change to another profile in MATE Terminal, then remove the Solarized profile by running:
$ rm -r ~/.gconf/apps/mate-terminal/profiles/Solarized/
$ gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/mate-terminal
Be sure to have the dconf-cli package installed and do:
$ dconf reset -f /org/mate/terminal/profiles/PROFILE_ID"
Replace PROFILE_ID by your profile ID (you can get it in your profile configuration in mate-terminal).
Each theme has is own folder in the colors
dir. It contains the following
files:
- bd_color: bold color
- bg_color: background color
- fg_color: foreground color
- palette: list of colors for all standard color codes.
No additional configuration is needed to add a theme, the installation script
just lists at launch the children folders in the colors
dir.

Use the 16 colors terminal option to get VIM to look like GVIM with solarized colors.
set t_Co=16
The set_dark.sh
and set_light.sh
scripts in the original repo are not
supported for MATE. Use install.sh
to install the color scheme.
First, ensure you are using the profile you installed the solarized color scheme to.
Second, close all open MATE terminals and reopen them.
If this still doesn't work, please file a bug report.
