Any way to get mousemodel popup to work on non-GTK Vim? I tend to
only use Vim in text mode, not GUI mode.
a) Extra footwork is needed to use menus in Console mode, see ":help
console-menus"
b) To recognise mouse events in console mode, you may need (depending on which
terminal you use, and in particular on whether it is an xterm / konsole / etc.
working through X or a pure-text /dev/tty console totally unaware of X) to
installe a mouse package (such as gpm), have it running as a daemon, and use a
Vim version with compiled-in support for that mouse daemon.
Finally, when spell check is enabled and syntax highlighting is also
enabled, there vim is highlighting some text in a way that the
foreground and background colors are the same -- so the text vanishes
from view. Maybe the solution is to not have syntax and spell
highlighting enabled at the same time?
a) Check that your 'background' option is set to what it should be ("light" or
"dark" depending on your terminal's default colors):
:verbose set bg?
b) Using a colorscheme (one of those distributed with Vim, one of those
available for download e.g. at vim-online, or making your own) might be the
answer.
Best regards,
