I'm currently using the following workaround (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/235439/vim-80-column-layout- concerns), this will make any characters going beyond 80th column to appear in red.
~/.vimrc: " Setting color highlighting for column=80 highlight OverLength ctermbg=red ctermfg=white guibg=#592929 match OverLength /\%81v.*/ But its a simple setting in previous 'vi' to achieve what I wanted.. -- :set columns=80 not working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370179 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
