# About
Monokai for Emacs is a port of the popular TextMate theme
[Monokai](http://www.monokai.nl/blog/2006/07/15/textmate-color-theme/)
by Wimer Hazenberg. The inspiration for the theme came from Bozhidar Batsov and
his [Zenburn](https://github.com/bbatsov/zenburn-emacs) port and
[Sublime Text 2](http://www.sublimetext.com/2) which defaults to this color scheme.
I like the colors and I like Emacs. This followed.
The theme uses built-in theming support available Emacs 24 and later.
I recommend using [Prelude](http://batsov.com/prelude/) in conjunction with
this theme. Bozhidar Batsov has done some awesome work in making Emacs beautiful and
accessable to a newcomer.
# Installation
## Manual
Download `monokai-theme.el` to the directory `~/.emacs.d/themes/`. Add this to your
`.emacs`:
```lisp
(add-to-list 'custom-theme-load-path "~/.emacs.d/themes/")
```
Now you can load the theme with the interactive function `load-theme` like this:
`M-x load-theme RET monokai`
## Package.el
Monokai is available in both [Marmalade](http://marmalade-repo.org)
and [MELPA](http://melpa.milkbox.net).
Keep in mind the fact the version in the Marmalade repo may not always
be up-to-date.
You can install `monokai` with the following command:
`M-x package-install monokai-theme`
To load it automatically on Emacs startup add this to your init file:
```lisp
(load-theme 'monokai t)
```
# Customization
Please see full list of variables in the `defcustom` section.
You can override specific core colors using this in your `init.el` or equivalent file:
```lisp
(setq ;; foreground and background
monokai-foreground "#ABB2BF"
monokai-background "#282C34"
;; highlights and comments
monokai-comments "#F8F8F0"
monokai-emphasis "#282C34"
monokai-highlight "#FFB269"
monokai-highlight-alt "#66D9EF"
monokai-highlight-line "#1B1D1E"
monokai-line-number "#F8F8F0"
;; colours
monokai-blue "#61AFEF"
monokai-cyan "#56B6C2"
monokai-green "#98C379"
monokai-gray "#3E4451"
monokai-violet "#C678DD"
monokai-red "#E06C75"
monokai-orange "#D19A66"
monokai-yellow "#E5C07B")
```
## `org-mode` headers
If you would like to change the font size of your `org-mode` headers you can do so with:
```lisp
(setq monokai-height-minus-1 0.8
monokai-height-plus-1 1.1
monokai-height-plus-2 1.15
monokai-height-plus-3 1.2
monokai-height-plus-4 1.3)
```
## Variable pitch
If you would like to use `variable-pitch-mode` you can enable it with:
```lisp
(setq monokai-user-variable-pitch t)
```
This used to be enabled by default but broke the principle of least surprise which resulted in a couple of issues. See [#62](https://github.com/oneKelvinSmith/monokai-emacs/issues/62) & [#56](https://github.com/oneKelvinSmith/monokai-emacs/issues/56).
## Windows
If your're experiencing font issues using `org-mode` on Windows with emacs 25 try add this to
your `init.el` or equivalent file:
```lisp
(add-hook 'after-init-hook '(lambda () (load-theme 'monokai t)))
;; FIX: Invalid font in org-mode on Windows
(when (and sys/win32p (> emacs-major-version 24))
(add-hook 'window-setup-hook '(lambda () (load-theme 'monokai t))))
```
