          I don’t know much vim, but emacs has themes and I’m sure that vim does too.

          I dunno if this is what vimfolk use these days, but:

          EDIT: Here are two “blue background” themes:

          https://vimcolorschemes.com/vim-scripts/blue.vim

          EDIT2: And some emacs themes – vim themes look to be a lot simpler than these:

          including a clone of the Borland C that I guess the author likes:

          EDIT3: Here’s a Borland C color scheme for vim:

          Does solarized count as blue colors?

            Too dark for my taste, I can’t stand dark themes they hurt my eyes. But thanks for the suggestion.
