ColorScheme autocmd event.
+ To customize a colorscheme use another name, e.g. "~/.vim/colors/mine.vim",
+ and use `:runtime` to load the original colorscheme:
+ " load the "evening" colorscheme

If you think you have a color scheme that is good enough to be used by others,
please check the following items:
+ - Source the check_colors.vim script to check for common mistakes.
- Does it work in a color terminal as well as in the GUI?
- Is "g:colors_name" set to a meaningful value? In case of doubt you can do
it this way:
