Hi,
hmmmm...it still does not work, which definitely is my fault.
The situation: I set
if &term =~ "xterm-256color"
let &t_SI = "\<Esc>]12;red\x7"
let &t_EI = "\<Esc>]12;white\x7"
endif
which set the color of the cursor to reflect the mode (insert/normal)
vim is in.
The drawback of this is: When leaving vim, the color of the cursor of
the terminal from which vim was started, is effected. This may result
in a non visible or less then optimal readability of the cursor.
So why not to reset the cursor color?
I did the following:
autocmd VimLeave * let &t_EI = "\<Esc>]12;green\x7"
which _should_ set the cursor back to the "original" color.
This does not work.
Then I tried (experimental...not based on any knowledge ;O) )
autocmd VimLeave * echo "\<Esc>]12;green\x7"
which also does not work.
"WARNING! IDEA STACK UNDERFLOW" was the next error I got..... ;)
Is there a way to reset the cursor color to "normal"...and...
Is there a way to determine the original cursor color before tweaking
t_SI and t_EI, to remember the color and to use it in the
reset-cursor-color-code instead of hardcoding it ?
Thank you very much for any help in advance !
keep hacking!
