Huh? Why is the "user completely lost"? There's no help missing.
Because he is no longer able to see the cursor: he has no idea about
where it is located on the screen. I don't have astronaut.vim, but I
tried a lot of other colorschemes and with bg='dark' on a black terminal
(a fairly common scenario I believe) the cursor vanish when going on
such a bar. Wouldn't this be an issue for many users?
Sorry -- I missed the part about the cursor being atop the "|". I'm
afraid that my cursor doesn't
disappear at all when atop "Ignore"d characters, either in console vim
or in the gui. I've been
using
if v:version >= 700
let &t_SI="\<esc>]12;blue\x7"
let &t_EI="\<esc>]12;yellow\x7"
endif
lately with console vim. Shows up differently when its in normal vs
insert mode on an xterm.
If you tried setting Cursor to use reverse, it should show up. So, the
problem you're having is
with any and all Ignore characters, with the Cursor as your colorscheme
has it.
