> If you change the cursor colour with viper-mode enabled, it will use the

>   (load-theme 'modus-operandi)
>   (viper-mode)
>   (modus-themes-toggle)
> 
> The (internal) variable `viper-vi-state-cursor-color` seems to be the
> culprit, as it remembers the cursor color of the theme that is no longer
> active after the toggle.

> This problem is not specific to modus-themes, any theme should work.
