looks ok -- vim has a "bare vi" mode that does not support fancy stuff like syntax hilighting > > :set t_Co? > > t_Co=8 I assume that when you say syntax highlighting is not working you're not seeing any colors, right? t_Co is the number of supported colors ..

But it could very well be that the variable is unset and the colorscheme defaults to a ... well, "default" value.. In vim, you could try: :colorscheme .. followed by a <TAB> (completion) and vim should prompt you with the available colorschemes. See what happens when you set the colorscheme to whatever comes with the default install.. > Thanks for your time. As mentioned earlier, if you're really stuck there are some very knowledgeable folks on the vim ML .. They should be able to help Thanks, cga -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
