Life,
Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately your proposed workaround looks like a
severe hack. Christian had responded asking me to check other terminal
emulators, and it appears to have been an issue with termcap (i.e. the TERM
environment variable). Manually running `TERM=xterm-256color vim` seems to
fix it for me.
If you have any related suggestions I would love to see them, but I had to
do something similar for mutt (sadly which I can't use anymore at work due
to MFA requirements which preclude IMAP) for it to show colors.
