If I recall correctly, this will affect gvim, because you have have used GUIfg and GUIbg (caps for emphasis). What happens if you supplement these: hi Comment ctermfg=white guifg=white ctermbg=black guibg=black Then it should affect vim invoked from the command prompt, I think. This is based on your talking about vim rather than gvim and not discussing how you invoked it. Sorry if this is irrelevant . Hugh
