I made a color scheme for Sublime Text.

This is a post in my Past Articles Series.

Several years before I started blogging at ian.wold.guru, I maintained a site with a CV and a small number of articles. I've preserved those articles on this site in this series.

About a week (?) or so ago I hashed out a quick Sublime Text color scheme called Monokai Gray. I did so because I desperately love Monokai and I love the Wombat Theme as well. Unfortunately, I couldn't use Monokai with Wombat (without throwing up) because the yellowey hue of Monokai clashed with the classy grays of Wombat. Truthfully, I had been using a similar color scheme in Visual Studio for some time (the yellowey background didn't fly there, either). So I copied many of the colors over and prettied it up a tad, and this was the result.

Here's a preview of what it looks like with some code I got here using the aforementioned Wombat Theme:
