How to I use Textmate color themes with vim?

I have a textmate color theme I really like this, But I am a hardcore vim user. Is there an easy (painless) way for me to use this color scheme with vim?

There are a lot of textmate color schemes for textmate in vim. Maybe you can find someone who already implemented it.

Searching in google for textmate theme vim, the first result is:

A GUI only color scheme based on the Railscasts TextMate theme.

Is this theme (Railcasts theme) what you're looking for?

This was the scheme I wanted. I guess the other answer in here is that there is no easy way to convert textmate->vim themes. Just do it manually I suppose. – machinaut – 2010-06-28T13:15:19.180

You can convert any Textmate color scheme to vim by using coloration.

The default syntax highlighting in the Janus distro of VIM is what you are looking for. I explain how to download it in my Textmate to VIM guide
