# wolf-alabaster-dark-bg.toml
#
# Author: Wolf <[email protected]>
# Project: https://github.com/wolf/alabaster-for-helix
#
# This is the dark "BG" (background) variant of Alabaster for Helix.
# Uses background colors for syntax highlighting while keeping text mostly light grey.
#
# Based on tonsky's "Alabaster BG" variant adapted for dark backgrounds.
