Hehe... this is good. I've never really looked in those *.vim files or paid any attention to them. But the one in there called `elflord' is the very fellow `Donavon' I swiped that scheme from 6 yrs ago.... I can just remove all the `hi' stuff... But I also see now that simply setting: set background=dark gives me a very usable color scheme... It looks very similar to the `elflord' one but I think its `koehler'. So I can forget `hi' settings and hope the remote machines have all those color schemes too.
