+# Customization
+You can change the colors and mode descriptors in vis-modal to your liking, with this template:
+```

+modal.MODES = {
+	[vis.modes.NORMAL] = ' NORMAL ',
+	[vis.modes.INSERT] = ' INSERT ',
+	[vis.modes.VISUAL] = ' VISUAL ',
+	[vis.modes.REPLACE] = ' REPLACE ',
+	[vis.modes.VISUAL_LINE] = ' VISUAL_LINE ',
+	[vis.modes.OPERATOR_PENDING] = ' OPERATOR_PENDING '
+}
+modal.STYLES = {
+	[vis.modes.NORMAL] = {
+		REGULAR = 'fore:default,back:yellow',
+		INVERTED = 'fore:yellow,back:black',
+	},
+	[vis.modes.INSERT] = {
+		REGULAR = 'fore:default,back:green',
+		INVERTED = 'fore:green,back:black',
