I used http://colorsublime.com/ http://colorsublime.com/ - it took me about 1 second to install Afterglow.
Colorsublime installation instructions (using Package Control):
1. CMD ^ P
2. Type "install" and select "Package Control: Install Package"
3. Type "Colorsublime" and select "Colorsublime"
Installing the theme:
1. CMD ^ P
2. Type "theme" and select "Colorsublime: Install Theme"
3. Type "afterglow" and select "Afterglow"
Profit.
When using Colorsublime (steps 1 + 2 of the second set), you can also arrow up and down through the themes and get a live preview of each as you do so.
Note: Colorsublime only installs the color scheme. If you want to take full advantage of a theme like this (includes custom tab styles, custom sidebar styles, etc.), you'll need to follow the directions on their website.
- jastanton 12y agoThis is better than their instructions just marginally. 1. CMD ^ P 2. Type "install" and select "Package Control: Install Package" 3. Type "Afterflow" and select "Theme - Afterglow" 4. Press: Command + , (to go into settings). 5. Paste the two lines from Github page, add any additional settings and restart sublime. edit: Ah I just saw your update, previewing is a nice little feature for sure, especially when you're not sure how they handle colors for the languages you use most often. Sounds nice
- mangeletti 12y agoI was just about to say, "see my latest edit"... when I saw your latest edit :) The preview feature also lets you move between your open files while previewing a theme (without selecting it), so you can check HTML, CSS, Python, etc. all without changing your theme.
- jaytaylor 12y agoNotably this is compatible with ST3 only. No backport for Sublime Text 2 users.
- swang 12y agoThanks. Kinda annoying this wasn't mentioned in parent, spent a couple minutes wondering why I couldn't find it in package manager.
- pidg 12y agoThis doesn't install the whole theme though (at least for me), just changes the colour scheme. To that, you'll need to install the theme by following the instructions on the Afterglow github page.
- mangeletti 12y agoYou're right. Until this very moment, I just realized, I haven't ever "installed a theme", so I've never experienced the customizations available for the entire UI, just the color scheme. I'm going to try installing the theme now, and I'll update my OP to note this. Thanks.
- baby 12y agoIt's awesome for simple color theme, but for big themes with icons and other stuff it just doesn't work.
