General :: Color Schemes Don't Look Right In CLI Vim
Jun 15, 2010
I was having a bit of trouble reading the dark red strings of Vim's default color scheme, so I decided to switch to a different one.
[URL]
However, when I set my color schemes to these, not only do they not come out correctly (for example, comments are bright blue), but these 2 somehow come out looking exactly the same! Am I doing something wrong, or are these colors restricted in the terminal so default colors are being chosen?

I would like to have normal colors for my "main" activity and very dark, lower-contrast colors for my "programming" activity (darker colors, ect. are easier on the eyes).
I thought this would be possible with (and was part of the point of) KDE4's activities. Is it?

Kernel 2.6.21.5, Slackware 12.0
KDE 3.5.7

Do color settings in the desktop environment affect color in the web browser? Thanks.

Are there any sound schemes for GNOME and MATE? Like different system sounds and a logon-logoff sound and a system sound for when I empty the trash bin? Like the way Ubuntu does, just with different sounds. I'm not that crazy about Ubuntu's system sounds.
I know I don't need it, I think it would just make a nice addition to my laptop and later my desktop.

I managed to do something that takes real talent to do: I broke my Slackware. I was chowning something for a user and, as I was really sleepy, accidentally entered "chown -R user /". It really didn't break, but it started to get glitchy because I couldn't fix it well enough. Then I rage-quit the game and wiped my whole drive except for my personal files. So now I'm here to learn how to properly install Slackware64 current out of the box and hear suggestions regarding partitioning schemes. First of all, I'm aware Alien Bob has a script to help automate the upgrading of the system. Is it the mirror-slackware-current.sh? Then what should I do? Install Slack and run the script or can I download things from another distro (I have Arch installed - love LXDE!) and use the Slack DVD to boot and choose it as the source?
If the suggested method is to install Slack first and go from there, I should upgrade slackpkg first, right? My other question is regarding partitioning schemes. I have an 160GB hdd and I used to follow this format: a small (200MB) primary /boot, a primary 20-30GB /, a primary 100GB (give or take) /home and the rest as an extended distro-hopping partition (at the moment I'm building LFS) plus swap. The thing is that I've been noticing a big inconvenience in this method. I have around 40GB left and sometimes I get curious about distro x or y and want to install it so I have to change the logical partitions and my swap gets renamed, which makes me have to edit my fstab. I already changed this setting sda1 to be swap. I'll be installing in a desktop personal computer. Some college work, but nothing too hardcore.

I am using the screen app, and have set bce to on, and issued the following commands to set my background and foreground color: tput setab 4; clear; tput setaf 7; clear;
This temporarily sets everything properly on my screen. However, when I issue any commands that change or set their own background color (for example, when I issue an "ls" command with colorized output), the background color gets lost for any new output and I have to reissue the commands listed above in order to retrieve my background color.Ideally I'd like to keep my background color when issuing these commands, as it serves as a good way to remind me of what environment I am currently issuing commands in.

I have an HP color laser printer and I am looking for a way to print black as black instead of using tri-color. For example If I print a document that has colored text then any black text is printed using the color cartridges rather then using black. I have been surviving by using windows XP in virtualbox but I'm hoping someone can help me with this. I've looked all over then net for a solution but I've found nothing. I remember having similar problems like this with older Macs because of postscript printing and I'm thinking this is the same problem but I don't know how to fix it. I've searched the forums as well but no joy.

I've recently set up ubuntu 9.1 via virtualbox and am having some issues getting things startedFirst issue is when I boot up the virtual machine a warning box pops up saying virtualbox is optimized for 32 bit color and the OS is running 16 bit color. Some google searches revealed that for linux 24 bit color is what I want, but most suggested I edit the xorg.conf file to 24 bit depth. Problem is when I try to open that file it's blank. Further reading seemed to indicate that the most recent versions of ubuntu no longer use the xorg.conf file, so how would I go about switching from 16 bit to 24 bit color? Not a major issue but still annoying.

Yes it's me again, about to ask a foolish question.I've ran man on this commands, but they don't make any reference to their color, nor is it mentioned in the Bible. As I go through such as /sbin what does the color of the commands mean, like arch is green, awk is blue, and then there is those that have a red background such as cgexec?Then I go into /etc and then there's yum.repos.d there is no man for it, so I typed it in and got "command not found", so then I went in SU mode and "vi yum.repos.d and I get "yum.repos.d" is a directory,No such file or directory. So just what is yum.repos.d, I thought this is where I add more repositories.

I have changed my background color of xterm/konsole to black (better for eye since i got to face monitor for long hour).In my vi file, there is a color setting to put all comment # with deep blue color. This make it very difficult to see if the blackground color is black color. How could i change color setting in vi or vim ? I want to change the blue color to cyan.

I have several terminals opened at once to monitor the logs. It would be helpful to choose different basic color for text (and maybe for background) for each terminal so I can quickly locate the one I need. Anyone know how to do this or perhaps point me to right direction?

Because I have to stare at my command prompt all the time on my computer, it should look at least half-decent, so I am trying to get it colored. The expected outcome is as seen on this site. I have the colors I want set in my .Xdefaults file, but they of course do not color my prompt.

I use a terminal with white text on black background (I just like it better), so I wrote the following line in my .vimrc file: set background=dark
However, gvim has black on white text. How do I do either of the following: Set the background of gvim to black Check in .vimrc if I'm using gvim I tried this: I started up gvim, and typed echo &term. The answer was "builtin_gui". So I wrote the following into .vimrc:
if &term == "builtin_gui"
set background=light
else
set background=dark
endif
Somehow, it didn't work.

I use cygwin on Windows7 to open a ssh session to my linux box. When I edit a file with vim, I don't have color, only kind of gray bold. I have colors when I do a ls into my ssh session. I have also colors when I edit files from a ssh session from my linux box to my linux box. I modified the shortcut on Window7 to run cygwin in 256 colors, no effect. Do I need to set an environment variable on my cygwin session ?
On Cygwin and On Fedora when "sshed" from Gygwin : TERM=cygwin

I'm on Debian with KDE 3.5 desktop and I use the Konsole terminal emulator.What I would like to know is: is it possible to tweak the color palette, for example to change my red to something a bit brighter? I use the "white on black" schema in Konsole and all colors are great except that red is far too dark on the black background. I found this Perl script that is supposed to change the palette but, while it prints the current palette just fine, I can see no difference between the various palettes.Searching for solutions mostly brings up pages about changing the scheme in Konsole or how to use colors in prompts and ls output etc, which is not quite what I need.

I've changed the terminal colors and now irssi statusbars have white text on light blue background. I would like to change the foreground color of the irssi statusbars to black but can't figure out how to do it. I don't want to download a whole theme, I only want to change this one color.
