Colours

If you’ve had a look at the rest of my dotfiles, you may have noticed I really like the Nord themeopen in new window. No wonder we can find it here again! Here is a small table listing the Nord colours:

Name	Value
nord0	#2e3440
nord1	#3b4252
nord2	#434c5e
nord3	#4c566a
nord4	#d8dee9
nord5	#e5e9f0
nord6	#eceff4
nord7	#8fbcbb
nord8	#88c0d0
nord9	#81a1c1
nord10	#5e81ac
nord11	#bf616a
nord12	#d08770
nord13	#ebcb8b
nord14	#a3be8c
nord15	#b48ead

I’ll prefix the variables’ name with phundrak- just in case it might conflict with another package I might use in the future, so the CLisp code looks like so:

(defvar phundrak-nord0 "#2e3440")
(defvar phundrak-nord1 "#3b4252")
(defvar phundrak-nord2 "#434c5e")
(defvar phundrak-nord3 "#4c566a")
(defvar phundrak-nord4 "#d8dee9")
(defvar phundrak-nord5 "#e5e9f0")
(defvar phundrak-nord6 "#eceff4")
(defvar phundrak-nord7 "#8fbcbb")
(defvar phundrak-nord8 "#88c0d0")
(defvar phundrak-nord9 "#81a1c1")
(defvar phundrak-nord10 "#5e81ac")
(defvar phundrak-nord11 "#bf616a")
(defvar phundrak-nord12 "#d08770")
(defvar phundrak-nord13 "#ebcb8b")
(defvar phundrak-nord14 "#a3be8c")
(defvar phundrak-nord15 "#b48ead")

Finally, let’s also modify the default colors StumpWM has. I’ll try to respect the original colours while converting them to Nord. We also need to reload them now that we modified them.

(setq *colors*
      `(,phundrak-nord1   ;; 0 black
        ,phundrak-nord11  ;; 1 red
        ,phundrak-nord14  ;; 2 green
        ,phundrak-nord13  ;; 3 yellow
        ,phundrak-nord10  ;; 4 blue
        ,phundrak-nord14  ;; 5 magenta
        ,phundrak-nord8   ;; 6 cyan
        ,phundrak-nord5)) ;; 7 white

(when *initializing*
  (update-color-map (current-screen)))

And with that we’re done!
