I'm looking for a colorscheme for my xterm+vim combination which has not the same contrast as black background and white foreground fonts. I tried some colorschemes, but they only work well with gvim. After googling a bit around, I tried to set my xterm with other colors, but this breaks the colors in other programs (eg. mutt), which is not what I want. Some links pointed me to a self compiled xterm, which I now have and it has 256 color support (dunno why debian xterm doesn't support 256 colors). The tests in the vttest directory are working very well.
I tried to add more colors to my .Xdefault file, like: <snip> !XTerm*background: DarkSlateGray XTerm*color20: MidnightBlue XTerm*color21: LightGreen </snip> and reference them in vim like: hi Normal ctermfg=Black ctermbg=20 guifg=Black guibg=grey20 This isn't working unfortunately and I dunno any further solutions. Maybe it isn't working at all, that I see the same colorscheme in xterm as in gvim. Does somebody know, what I missed or have a nice working xterm+vim and can give me a push in the right direction?
