Vim Green Black Color Scheme

Vim has become my most used writing and light programming tool. I've tried different color schemes and finally created my own. It's green and dark green on a black background.
I've set the cursor color magenta to quickly find where you are at when editing. A color scheme it's a very particular thing and you may even want to create your own!
As you can see this Vim green black color scheme  it's very relaxing for the eyes. I've called this Vim theme defaultme.vim and here is the color file:

" Vim color file

" Last Change:    2013 Dec

" This is a Vim dark color scheme with black background and green foreground colors

    " no guarantees for version 5.8 and below, but this makes it stop
    " complaining
    hi clear
    if exists("syntax_on")
        syntax reset
    endif
endif

" Load the syntax highlighting defaults, if it's enabled.
if exists("syntax_on")
  syntax reset
endif

let colors_name = "defaultme"

" highlight groups

Al you've got to do is copy it in a file and name it as defaultme.vm then place it on the color folder. If you use Vim for writing you can tuning it to make it like the WriteRoom writing enviroment.

    Love you! Thanks for the colorscheme. I used to work with HP Green terminals and have my cygwin terminals all green, wanted my vim the same. Greg.

Repair Dolce Gusto Circolo Leaking Problem

Image
My Dolce Gusto coffee machine started leaking without even plugin in to the socket. Water was leaking at the base, the tank would get completely empty in a few seconds, so I dismounted the back cover to see. Use a Torx tool.  Fisrt start removing the two screws down besides the reservoir connector. Down there you see the join inside the water connector. That small rubber joint was apparently in a good shape but the problem really came from it. I took the small water filter and descaled it by diping it in white vinegar for a few minutes. Then I took a rubber tap joint from my tool box and put it on top of the rubber joint as you see it in the circle. Then I mounted all back again and it works! The joint was just too used, and you can replace it with a tap rubber joint, just find the right size. Descale the coffe machine This is always a good thing to do every two or three months to keep the inside clean. I descaled completely by filling the water tank with a mixture

Root Nook Simple Touch with updated NookManager

I have just rooted my Nook Simple Touch and it works really well. The screen quality is better than some other android readers which are really expensive on the market. After rooting everything flows and works fine, even browsing with Opera Mini. Upgrade the firmware to 1.2.2 With the old firmware 1.1.0 the wifi network does not work, so to upgrade the firmware you have to side download it to the reader and once it gets in sleep mode it will begin to upgrade itself Go to the page: https://help.barnesandnoble.com/hc/en-us/articles/5379840873371-Having-trouble-connecting-to-your-NOOK-#ManualDL and follow the instructions, then download the file: https://su.barnesandnoble.com/nook/nook2/1.2.2/351e26527e80156183e74be2da2ce89f/nook_1_2_update.zip Upgrade the firmware Register your Nook Simple Touch Root the Nook Simple Touch This update is only for firmware 1.2.2, I was impatient and tried to do it on the old firmware and it does not work well as you cannot install apk files or have Wi

How to Change the Gear Shift Knob of the Peugeot 306

Image
Well, last week the gear shift knob of my car got teared down in my hand as I was driving as you can see it in the picture. It was so really broken that the official knob from Peugeot would not fit anymore. The good thing about it is that now I can replace it by a nice one. But it was a real pain to figure out how to dismount it, the main thing is to lift up the leather bag around it first, from the bottom and then turn the knob twice to the left and then pull from it till it comes off . As you can see the white base support was broken too, so I had to dismount the whole thing and look for an universal knob to replace it. Well here is the gear shift itself all alone, I had to stick around it a piece of plastic and then tighten it up with a wire (I did this with my pliers to hold it tight), so that the leather bag will not move down later. Here is the new knob, it has a nice fairy on it, well, I know you are smiling :) but it was the only one in the store one that fitted
