A couple of my friends asked for the color scheme I use in vim. It is not something very original, I kept modifying an existing color scheme to my liking. If there are two people other than me who find it useful, I think it is worth putting it here. I call it programming.vim

set background=light
hi clear
if exists("syntax_on")
syntax reset
endif
let g:colors_name="programming"
hi normal guifg=#333333 guibg=#fcfcfc
hi title guifg=black guibg=white gui=BOLD
hi lcursor guibg=cyan guifg=NONE
hi cursor guibg=#696969 guifg=NONE
hi lineNr guifg=white guibg=#999999
hi comment guifg=#999999 gui=NONE
hi identifier guifg=#008000 gui=NONE
hi statement guifg=#0000c8 gui=NONE
hi typeDef guifg=#0000c8 gui=NONE
hi type guifg=#0000c8 gui=NONE
hi boolean guifg=#0000c8 gui=NONE
hi string guifg=darkblue guibg=#f5f6f9 gui=NONE

hi function guifg=#008040 gui=NONE
hi preproc guifg=#008040 gui=NONE
hi keyword guifg=#008040 gui=NONE
hi specialchar gui=underline
Though some of you might find it silly, the color scheme has been important for me since I do almost all my typing in vim. Use it the way you want and feel free to give suggestions.
