Announcing a nice-looking dark theme, Tinge color scheme for gEdit (Text Editor for GNOME):
Tinge (v1.0)
Preview (In Python):

Download Instructions:
- Click here to download (Or right click and choose Save As…)
Installation Instructions:
- Its very simple! Simply run your gEdit and go to Edit – Preferences – Font and Colors tab.
- Under the Color Scheme list, click the Add… button and select this downloaded Tinge.xml file from wherever you saved/moved it to.
- You’re done! Enjoy the colors as you develop!
Named it Tinge just for fun and cause it really just a tinge more than the Darkmate. Also inspired by Monokai’s theme here.

Hey, that’s pretty cool and kinda geeky.
I’ll download it soon

[...] am working on adding several language options to a much-more pretty Tinge theme (For gedit / gtksourceview 2). You can expect the new version to it soon, with more pretty colors. Rich colored yet simple syntax [...]

Hello, a really nice theme but I found one problem. If you are using the “current line highlight” you have set a “less_gray” color, which makes imposible to see the fonts (which are set to white).
I just replaced that color.
Cheers

Hi Nitin,
