Agate

Agate is a medium gray color theme for Emacs. It's not dark, but neither is it very light. It's just right. It has a wide, balanced color palette and special support for certain modes whose default use of font-lock faces wouldn't look good otherwise.

Why should you use Agate?

• The low-contrast colors are mainly in the middle of the brightness scale, meaning it's easy on the eyes under any light conditions.
• It allows you to really appreciate the crystalline structure of your code.
• The colors just "pop" out from the background.
• It's simple, yet full of surprises!

Modes with special support:

• LaTeX
• Show Paren
