You can override the default colors in your .vimrc file. You'd have to dig through the docs or the default files, but here are some overrides I've used for years that should give you a place to start: " Set nice colors highlight Normal guibg=wheat highlight Visual gui=reverse guifg=NONE guibg=wheat highlight Cursor guibg=red guifg=NONE highlight NonText guibg=wheat highlight Constant guifg=DarkSlateBlue highlight Search guifg=red gui=bold guibg=NONE highlight Comment guifg=grey30 highlight PreProc guifg=brown highlight Special guifg=sienna gui=bold highlight PreProc guifg=brown highlight Statement guifg=sienna highlight type guifg=#227b10 gui=bold highlight cIdentifier gui=bold guifg=DarkSlateBlue My normal background is wheat, so you'll obviously have to adjust the colors, but at least this give you the syntax. I'm sure there are other "types" (the word after highlight) but these where the main ones that bothered me. -- Chris Bare [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
