Hello, Another way to get around this is to add something like this to your _vimrc:
augroup MyColors au! au ColorScheme * highlight Comment guifg=Darkgreen au ColorScheme * highlight Identifier guifg=Blue [ ... etc ... ] augroup end " execute the commands now in case they aren't triggered immediately: do MyColors ColorScheme Each time colors are reloaded (like when you use ':syn on'), the highlight commands will be executed. regards, Peter --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hello, > > in my old gvim62 installation I do a few highlight commands in the > $VIM/_gvimrc: > > highlight Comment guifg=DarkGreen guibg=background > ... > > Now in my new vim70 installation this seems to be overwritten somewhere. > The _gvimrc *is* sourced (-> :scriptnames) > If I do the highlight command manually it works. > > Where may the highlight be overwritten resp. where should I place the > highlight command instead? > > Thank You > > Joachim > > [gvim70 WinXP] > ########################################### > > This message has been scanned by F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange. > For more information, connect to http://www.f-secure.com/ > ____________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
