9.10 Note on prism.el

This package by Adam Porter, aka “alphapapa” or “github-alphapapa”, implements an alternative to the typical coloration of code. Instead of highlighting the syntactic constructs, it applies color to different levels of depth in the code structure.

As prism.el offers a broad range of customizations, we cannot style it directly at the theme level: that would run contrary to the spirit of the package. Instead, we may offer preset color schemes. Those should offer a starting point for users to adapt to their needs.

In the following code snippets, we employ the modus-themes-with-colors macro: Use theme colors in code with modus-themes-with-colors.

These are the minimum recommended settings with 16 colors:

(setq prism-num-faces 16)
(prism-set-colors
 :desaturations '(0) ; do not change---may lower the contrast ratio
 :lightens '(0) ; same
 :colors (modus-themes-with-colors
 (list fg-main
 magenta
 cyan-cooler
 magenta-cooler
 blue
 magenta-warmer
 cyan-warmer
 red-cooler
 green
 fg-main
 cyan
 yellow
 blue-warmer
 red-warmer
 green-cooler
 yellow-faint)))

With 8 colors:

(setq prism-num-faces 8)
(prism-set-colors
 :desaturations '(0) ; do not change---may lower the contrast ratio
 :lightens '(0) ; same
 :colors (modus-themes-with-colors
 (list blue
 magenta
 magenta-cooler
 cyan-cooler
 fg-main
 blue-warmer
 red-cooler
 cyan)))

And this is with 4 colors, which produces results that are the closest to the themes’ default aesthetic:

(setq prism-num-faces 4)
(prism-set-colors
 :desaturations '(0) ; do not change---may lower the contrast ratio
 :lightens '(0) ; same
 :colors (modus-themes-with-colors
 (list blue
 magenta
 magenta-cooler
 green-warmer)))

If you need to apply desaturation and lightening, you can use what the prism.el documentation recommends, like this (adapting to the examples with the 4, 8, 16 colors):

(prism-set-colors
 :desaturations (cl-loop for i from 0 below 16 collect (* i 2.5))
 :lightens (cl-loop for i from 0 below 16 collect (* i 2.5))
 :colors (modus-themes-with-colors
 (list fg-main
 cyan-cooler
 magenta-cooler
 magenta)))
