# 0.10.0
 [](https://github.com/arcticicestudio/nord-vim/projects/15) [](https://github.com/arcticicestudio/nord-vim/milestone/12)
## Features
**Vim 8 terminal highlighting** — #125 ⇄ #126 (⊶ 83f8c260) by [@cg433n][gh-user-cg433n]
↠ Added support for the Vim's built-in terminal (`:terminal`) that comes with version 8.0.0 and higher.
## Improvements
**Comment Color Brightness** — #145 ⇄ #146 (⊶ 9e0249ca)
↠ Implemented the increase of the comment color (`nord3`) brightness by 10% from a lightness level of ~35% to ~45%.
➜ **Please see [arcticicestudio/nord#94][gh-nord#94] for all details about this design change decision**!
⚠ **NOTE**: This change also **deprecates the [comment contrast][readme-config-comment-brightness] configuration** that will be removed in Nord Vim version 1.0.0!
The default comment color has been adjusted so the configuration is not required anymore for users to increase the brightness on their own.
To notify users about this change a deprecation warning will be shown when the `g:nord_comment_brightness` configuration variable has been set and initialized through the user's configuration.
## Improvements
**Improved compatibility of airline with tmuxline.vim plugin** — #117 ⇄ #128 (⊶ 3150628f)
↠ The [Nord airline.vim][gh-src-airline] UI plugin theme now includes better support for the [tmuxline.vim][gh-tmuxline.vim] plugin. Previously text shown in the main segment of the _tmuxline_, generated via the `:Tmuxline airline` command, caused a `bad colour: NONE` error or has been colorized using `nord0` which resulted in unreadable text due to a `nord3` background.
This has been fixed by using `nord5` as foreground color. …[#11][gh-11] was used as implementation reference since it fixed the same incompatibility for the [lightline.vim][gh-lightline.vim] plugin.
# 0.9.0

### UI
❯ The cursor is now correctly shown and visible when leaving a terminal window from within Vim or Neovim by adding the `TermCursorNC` group. (PR #101, @meck, 2fac9fa0)
❯ The „inline marker“ in unified _diffs_ is now colorized differently than the background of the changed line to make the changes better and faster recognizable. This applies for both the [uniform _diff_ background mode][readme-config-uniform-diff-background] and normal _diff_ mode. (PR #121, @ironhouzi, 65c559ee)
<p align="center"><p><strong>Before/After comparison of default <em>diff</em> mode</strong></p><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/7836623/41816510-4d548a90-7787-11e8-9fbd-9ae572763c22.png" /><br><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/7836623/39664393-e75f52b8-5082-11e8-8bb0-ba19c11dd391.png" /></p>

## Bug Fixes
### UI
❯ The current line number's color is now highlighted correctly in terminal mode. Previously it was only highlighted when running in GUI mode or when `termguicolors` has been set. (#116 in 50ec737b (PR #100), @huyvohcmc @dylnmc)
<p align="center"><p><strong>Before</strong></p><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/7836623/41816653-d62d808a-778a-11e8-8bce-d1f76a1e6fae.png" /></p>

# 0.8.0
 [](https://github.com/arcticicestudio/nord-vim/projects/11) [](https://github.com/arcticicestudio/nord-vim/milestone/10)
## Features
### Plugin Support
#### UI
❯ Added support for [vim-signify][plugin-mhinz/vim-signify]. (PR #81, @dabio, edcdd0e4)
<p align="center"><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/7836623/34623682-a7b7e960-f252-11e7-9194-c82aff310a75.png"/></p>
## Improvements
### UI
❯ The color of links in `:help` was the same as normal text making it impossible to to distinguish between both. This has been improved by using `nord8` including the help bars when enabled with `:set conceallevel=2`. (#85 in PR #93, @delphinus, e9974fe6)
<p align="center"><strong>Before</strong><br><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/7836623/34460697-25f5be7e-ee16-11e7-9c57-32bb2ec15314.png"/></p>

### Documentation
❯ The lightline screenshots in the documentation have been made using the [lightline's advanced configurations][itchyny/lightline-adv-config]. This confused users when the lighline does not equal the one seen on the screenshot due to the default lightline configuration. This has now been clarified including a additional screenshot showing the appearance of the lightline when using the default configuration. (#74 in PR #94, @lokesh-krishna, 3c14c961)
<p align="center"><img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arcticicestudio/nord-vim/develop/assets/scrot-plugin-support-ui-lightline-default.png"/></p>
## Bug Fixes
❯ The background color for matching parens is now assigned to the right color `nord3` instead of `nord0` in GUI mode. (#95 in PR #96, @dylnmc, 8bc1be01)
<p align="center"><strong>Before</strong><br><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/7836623/34619232-cd9ea512-f241-11e7-8045-e4ac695d56bb.png"/></p>

# 0.7.0
 [](https://github.com/arcticicestudio/nord-vim/projects/10) [](https://github.com/arcticicestudio/nord-vim/milestone/9)
## Features
❯ Added a new [configuration to allow users to increase the comment brightness][readme-config-comment-brightness] by 1 - 20 percent. It can be enabled by setting the `g:nord_comment_brightness variable` to a number between `1` and `20`. (#48 in PR #56, @drzel, e18ab4e8)
**This option should only be enabled if the terminal supports 24bit true color (16 million colors) and requires the `termguicolors` option to be set is in `~/.vimrc` or via `:set termguicolors`!**

To adhere to the Nord design guidelines this option uses `nord3` by default.
This is a reference table if users like to use the same increased contrast values as provided by the [Nord Atom Syntax accessibility custom comment contrast theme setting][nord-atom-syntax-pr-47] which are calculated using the LESSCSS [`lighten`][lesscss-doc-fn-lighten] function.

❯ Added support for NeoVim UI terminal colors. (#63, @meck, af01167b)
### Plugin Support
#### Syntax
❯ Added support for the [plasticboy/vim-markdown][plugin-plasticboy/vim-markdown] syntax plugin to match the style of the built-in markdown syntax styles. (#45 in PR #57, @VVVFO, 09921268)
#### UI
❯ Added support for the `PlugClean` command of the [junegunn/vim-plug][plugin-junegunn/vim-plug] plugin which used the `Ignore` group by default for deleted directory listings resulting in unreadable text when `cursorline` has been set. (#43 in PR #59, @dylnmc, e532b5d6)

❯ Added basic support for [tpope/vim-fugitive][plugin-tpope/vim-fugitive]. (#76 in PR #77, @anhari, fa09c3b1)
Filenames are now highlighted when using the `:Gstatus` command.
## Improvements
### Syntax
❯ Added highlight support for legacy *diff* groups `diffAdded` and `diffRemoved` of the `git.vim` and `diff.vim` syntx definitions. (#66 in PR #67, @brandoniffert, 99e59e67)
These groups are not in the [official vim documentation][vim-doc-diffAdd] but are still used by the syntax for example when run with `git commit --verbose`.

❯ Added missing Markdown *italic* and **bold** groups. (#84 in PR #91, @lokesh-krishna @dylnmc, 63b46125)
❯ Improved the highlighting for matching parens. (#75 and #71 in PR #78, @vincentzhezhang @cryptomaniac512 @dylnmc, 8eb7b2a6)
The background color intensity under the cursor was too bright and the cursor no more visible causing the user to be distracted to focus on the matching bracket instead of the bracket at the cursor position.
To optimally improve the highlighting `nord3` will now be used as background color for the matching element which doesn't conflict with the `cursorline` color and also stands out in order to see the matching element.

## Tasks
❯ Added the included [lightline theme to the official lightline repository][itchyny/lightline.vim-gh-257]. (#68 in [itchyny/lightline#257][itchyny/lightline.vim-gh-257], @lokesh-krishna, itchyny/lightline@e69081c1370a57647e05df21b60a4ef092c3ce91)
### Documentation
❯ Migrated to the MIT license to adapt to the migration of the main [Nord][nord-gh] project. Detailed information can be found in the [main task ticket][gh-55-arcticicestudio/nord]. (#69 in PR #70, fa55dc35)
# 0.6.0
 [](https://github.com/arcticicestudio/nord-vim/projects/9) [](https://github.com/arcticicestudio/nord-vim/milestone/8)
## Features
### Plugin Support
#### UI
❯ Added basic support for [CtrlP][plugin-ctrlp]. (PR #33, @syedelec)
* Matched characters are using the keyword color instead of the normal text color to make matched characters visible
* Already opened buffers now take the normal text color instead of the comment color
❯ Added basic support [ALE][plugin-ale]. (PR #44, @meck)
* Warning signs are colorized using a `nord13` foreground
* Error signs are colorized using a `nord11` foreground instead of a red background with a white foreground
## Improvements
### UI
❯ The fold marker foreground has been adjusted to match the comment color instead of `nord1` which has been too dark causing them to be unreadable in bright environments. The background color has also been changed to `nord1` to differ from normal comments and the font style is now bold for better legibility. (#38 in PR #40, @dylnmc)
❯ The highlight text of a active substitute search result is now underlined in order to make it more recognizable. (#35 in PR #41, @KevinSjoberg)
#### Neovim
❯ Addded support for the Neovim specific `:CheckHealth` status highlight groups. (#31 in PR #42, @syedelec, Thanks to @dylnmc)

## Features
### Configurations
❯ Added a configuration to enable [italic comments](https://github.com/arcticicestudio/nord-vim#italic-comments).
To adhere to the Nord style guide this option is disabled by default. It can be enabled by setting the `g:nord_italic_comments` variable to `1`.
```vim
let g:nord_italic_comments = 1

## Improvements
### Plugin Support
❯ The [Nord lightline.vim][nord-lightline] UI plugin theme now includes better support for the [tmuxline.vim](https://github.com/edkolev/tmuxline.vim) plugin. Before this implementation text shown in the main segment of the tmuxline, generated via the `:Tmuxline lightline` command, has been colorized using `nord0` which resulted in unreadable text due to a `nord3` background.
This has been fixed by using `nord5` as foreground color. (@scottwillmoore, #11, 4ea37f7e)
