Ekini Edit: A gEdit Scheme / Vim Scheme that is dark and suitable for low-light conditions
A dark scheme with reduced glare and improved readability. The scheme is called Ekini Edit, it is based on the Zendburn and Thankful Eyes.
UPDATE: Wow, this post has recently been getting a lot of attention from StumbleUpon. Please keep the fire burning by Stumbling/sharing this post. Thanks everyone!
How to install:

- Add ekini_edit.xml
UPDATE:
My brother just ported this to Vim. It can be found here: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=3159

My problem is the opposite as often both the terminal and gedit are unreadable because of the light that come from the eastern window. Have you any suggestions on a color scheme? :)

I haven’t had that problem here at work. You can try to experiment between a dark scheme (like the one above) and a light scheme for gedit.

Hi Boosis,
I’m sorry I do not have this scheme for netbeans. I have not tried using netbeans yet. If ever I get my hands on it, I will certainly be creating a port for this scheme for netbeans since I always code with a dark background.
@John, sorry brother, no port for Vim now. Just download Zendburn. This scheme is based on it.
Thanks,
Wenbert

Thanks, I love the color scheme! I’ll have to port this over to vim at some point. :)
