Kimbie Fountain
A Visual Studio Code theme designed to improve highlighting of .fountain files while using the Better Fountain extension. With the lack of modern cross-platform Fountain format editors, Visual Studio Code currently stands out as one of the better ones. However it's lacking in specialized themes.
As a long time Kimbie Dark user, I decided to modify the syntax highlighting to make it work a little better, improve contrast issues and eliminate theme features unsuitable for screenwriting.
{
"scope": "string constant.character.escape",
"settings": {
"foreground": "#b27575" // Parentheticals
}
},
{
"scope": "entity.other.pagebreak",
"settings": {
"foreground": "#a67f68" // Page breaks
}
},
{
"scope": "constant.numeric.scene",
"settings": {
"foreground": "#b17b53" // Scene numbers
}
},Fortunately the source code of the built-in themes easy to find, and with a few modifications I managed to craft the perfect screenwriting VSCode theme, as niche as this use case might be.
The theme is now available as an extension in the Visual Studio Code Marketplace here.
