I don't know about any technical limitations, but is a 3.5M zip file really a Vim script? There are people who routinely download new scripts and have a look at them from interest. They will get a surprise when they find themselves looking at an unzipped file of several megabytes. If I understand the situation, your zip is a collection of all colorscheme scripts from vim.org, with some tool for viewing them? Similar ideas have been tried in the past, but I think there are far too many colorschemes for anyone to evaluate. That's particularly the case when many of them are merely a minor variation on another scheme, and many are somewhat broken. It might be more helpful for someone to do an evaluation for what is good on a system of a certain type, and provide a preview of, say, fifty of the best schemes. See the links at the following for how that has been attempted: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Switch_color_schemes John -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
