Enable alternate new-style Visual #23

Closed tavin closed 4 years ago

tavin commented 4 years ago

I found a different choice for the Visual guibg color that was commented out. For me it makes the Visual selection much easier to see and it's still nicer than the old-style Visual.

Thanks, looks good!

There is no suitable ctermbg but I think 23 is closest. Will fix it in a few minutes.

thanks @jnurmine

I've also changed the color for Comment and SpecialComment locally, to something a little brighter... would you be open to a g:zenburn_alternate_Comment patch?

Please send it in, I can have a look.

The idea with Comment etc. being deliberately subdued is that comments are not read every time. After one is familiar with that part of the code, the comments are not "functional" anymore and should fade to the background and do not need to jump out. Seeing the comments should require minimal cognitive effort, but this argument applies also to unseeing them.

But, anyway, please send it in.
