For testing/ running custom plugins, put the bash script into the scripts directory of dracula/tmux plugin.
Additionally, in the `@dracula-plugins` option, add the script as `custom:name-of-script.sh`.

Each custom plugin can have its own colors, just like a packaged plugin, by setting
`@dracula-custom-<name-of-script>-colors "bg fg"`, using the full script name including any file
extension (e.g. `@dracula-custom-docker.sh-colors`). The `custom-` prefix avoids clashing with a
packaged plugin's own `@dracula-<name-of-script>-colors` option, should one exist. If unset, it
falls back to `@dracula-custom-plugin-colors "bg fg"`, and then to dracula defaults.

```bash
set -g @dracula-plugins "custom:docker.sh"
set -g @dracula-custom-docker.sh-colors "blue dark_gray"
```

per-plugin colors for custom scripts are covered in [custom:script-name](/docs/CONFIG.md#customscript-name---up).

# overriding color variables

all dracula colors can be overridden and new variables can be added.
