I just ran into some coloring issue that I wanted to share, and perhaps contribute some troubleshooting tips in the docs.
ProblemWhen using vim in alacritty & tmux on macOS, colors were completely off in vim:
I was not able to replicate the issue using iTerm2 + tmux + vim.
Here are the relevant settings I had for alacritty, tmux, and vim:
AlacrittyPer the official repo:
# ... # challenger deep colors: # Default colors primary: background: '0x1b182c' foreground: '0xcbe3e7' # Normal colors normal: black: '0x100e23' red: '0xff8080' green: '0x95ffa4' yellow: '0xffe9aa' blue: '0x91ddff' magenta: '0xc991e1' cyan: '0xaaffe4' white: '0xcbe3e7' # Bright colors bright: black: '0x565575' red: '0xff5458' green: '0x62d196' yellow: '0xffb378' blue: '0x65b2ff' magenta: '0x906cff' cyan: '0x63f2f1' white: '0xa6b3cc'Tmux
# ...
set-option -g default-terminal "xterm-256color"
# ...
Note: I'm not using the official tmux theme. See my dotfiles for the full config.
vimPer the official repo:
" ... Plug 'https://github.com/challenger-deep-theme/vim', { 'as': 'ChallengerDeep' } " ... if has('nvim') || has('termguicolors') set termguicolors endif colorscheme challenger_deep " ...Solution
Research led me to this reddit thread.
What solved it for me was setting the following tmux config option:
# ... set-option -g default-terminal "xterm-256color" + set-option -ga terminal-overrides ',xterm-256color:Tc' # ...
Here is what vim looks like in alacritty + tmux on macOS now:
