Revision as of 08:37, April 5, 2012

Vim 7.3 is distributed with file vim73/syntax/syncolor.vim. The following is an example of how that file might be changed. These comments were originally posted at Changing the default syntax highlighting, and the comments were then moved to Highlighting, and then moved to here.

I want a simple syntax highlighting which does not take attention from the real thing. Color codes are:

Green for comments
Blue for keywords/types
Bluebold for flow-control
Brown or gray for strings and constants
Black (or navy) for the rest

For that purpose I changed the "syncolor.vim" file (and it works best for light background xterm).

Some changes are: 

SynColor Comment      term=bold      cterm=NONE ctermfg=DarkGreen ctermbg=NONE gui=NONE guifg=MediumSeaGreen guibg=NONE
SynColor Constant     term=underline cterm=NONE ctermfg=DarkRed   ctermbg=NONE gui=NONE guifg=SlateGrey guibg=NONE
SynColor Special      term=bold      cterm=NONE ctermfg=DarkRed   ctermbg=NONE gui=NONE guifg=DarkRed   guibg=NONE
SynColor Identifier   term=underline cterm=NONE ctermfg=DarkCyan  ctermbg=NONE gui=NONE guifg=DarkCyan  guibg=NONE
SynColor Statement    term=bold      cterm=NONE ctermfg=Blue      ctermbg=NONE gui=bold guifg=SlateBlue guibg=NONE
SynColor PreProc      term=underline cterm=NONE ctermfg=DarkBlue  ctermbg=NONE gui=NONE guifg=SlateBlue guibg=NONE
SynColor Type         term=underline cterm=NONE ctermfg=DarkBlue  ctermbg=NONE gui=bold guifg=Blue      guibg=NONE
SynColor Underlined   term=underline cterm=underline ctermfg=DarkMagenta gui=underline  guifg=SlateBlue
SynColor Ignore       term=NONE      cterm=NONE ctermfg=white     ctermbg=NONE gui=NONE guifg=bg        guibg=NONE

The changed syncolor.vim file follows.
