Overview

dimmer.el is an Emacs minor mode that indicates which buffer is currently active by dimming the faces in the other buffers. It does this nondestructively, and computes the dimmed faces dynamically such that your overall color scheme is shown in a muted form without requiring you to define what is a “dim” version of every face.

dimmer.el can be configured to adjust foreground colors (default), background colors, or both.
