configurable window separtor

Motivation

Currently in Neovim, we can not make the active window distinguishable via the window separator. This plugin will color the border of active window, like what tmux does for its different panes.

Requirements

• Neovim 0.8.3+
• Nerd Fonts

Install

Using a plugin manager

Using vim-plug:

Plug 'nvim-zh/colorful-winsep.nvim'

Using Packer.nvim:

use {
    "nvim-zh/colorful-winsep.nvim",
    config = function ()
        require('colorful-winsep').setup()
    end
}

Using lazy.nvim

{
  "nvim-zh/colorful-winsep.nvim",
  config = true,
  event = { "WinLeave" },
}

Default configuration

require("colorful-winsep").setup({
  -- highlight for Window separator
  hi = {
    bg = "#16161E",
    fg = "#1F3442",
  },
  -- This plugin will not be activated for filetype in the following table.
  no_exec_files = { "packer", "TelescopePrompt", "mason", "CompetiTest", "NvimTree" },
  -- Symbols for separator lines, the order: horizontal, vertical, top left, top right, bottom left, bottom right.
  symbols = { "━", "┃", "┏", "┓", "┗", "┛" },
  -- #70: https://github.com/nvim-zh/colorful-winsep.nvim/discussions/70
  only_line_seq = true,
  -- Smooth moving switch
  smooth = true,
  exponential_smoothing = true,
  anchor = {
    left = { height = 1, x = -1, y = -1 },
    right = { height = 1, x = -1, y = 0 },
    up = { width = 0, x = -1, y = 0 },
    bottom = { width = 0, x = 1, y = 0 },
 },
 light_pollution = function(lines) end,
})
