I've added my ANSI theme #6

nice work.

Maybe we can generalize both themes by generating them from a source.

e.g. if I add a new extension to commented files, this could be added to the ansi themes too ...

Yeah that's an interesting idea. I think we'd have to agree on a division scheme. The thing with ANSI colors is that there aren't many colors, so I have to have broad divisions. The benefit you have with a 256-color scheme is that you have more than the Solarized colors if you have to use some other colors; so you can have more categories. I'm not sure we can have a one-to-one mapping of categories and thus be able to determine the color.

What could be useful, at least, is just to run some sort of diff on the outputs of sort -u for the extensions to see what's missing in either one.
