Greetings,
Sorry if this is an obvious one but I searched using a variety of
arguments and nothing was too clear. I also looked at _gvimrc
and changed the line
highlight Normal guibg=white # from gray80
which made it much easier to see the selected text.
Now I would like to test some other colors other than the
gray look for the selected text, is it possible?.
I am using mingw compiled version of vim-7.0223 on winxp
I'm assuming you're on GVim. Go to the Syntax menu on top and select
either
Syntax > Color test
Syntax > Highlight test
Those tests will allow you to see a spectrum of colors on text.
The manual way of doing the Color test is
:sp $VIMRUNTIME/syntax/colortest.vim | so %
The manual way of doing the Highlight test is
:runtime syntax/hitest.vim
HTH :)
