Some "Step ZERO" instructions would be useful. #19

I have always relied upon the color schemes built-in to vim. I had to do some background searching to realize that I needed to copy the color schemes found in your colors directory to /usr/share/vim/colors to be able to set them with a command like:

colo xcodelighthc

I presume that if I copy the colors directory to ~/.vim/colors (so I don't need privileged permissions) it would have the same effect (and yes, that was the appropriate non-privileged way to add the color schemes).

I ran into the same "Step ZERO" problem with using plug

If your README.md file would point to an appropriate introduction to using colors files in vim, that would suffice. I suspect it already exists.

I am very old school. I started using ed in 1974, long before there were graphics terminals. The first CRTs were barely better than a glass tty with only rudimentary curses capabilities long before the DEC VT100 was created and documented. Implementing the first screen editor add on for ed and running on acoustic coupled 300 baud modem was painful, but a big step forward.

Do 821ae29 and 33f629b solve this issue?

I'm not the original issue poster, but the current README documentation is great, @arzg. 👍 And thanks for the great color scheme!
