I don't get it in strange colors, but I regularly get leftover garbage like that in the correct Normal fg color in my gvim in Windows XP. I think I first noticed it back in 7.1 or 7.2, it's been around for a while. It may not be the same issue, but other people have complained in the past about it. I've never found a reliable way to reproduce it. I do not use the font tag in highlight rules, but rather just set my guifont. Maybe that contributes to why mine acts differently. I use DejaVu Sans Mono most of the time, and occasionally Consolas, so I doubt it's only Lucida Console. -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post!
