Hi, That happens with me too. I have the same version of Mac OS X and Vim (for terminal only). For GUI I use MacVim that works fine. In terminal, Vim uses the default background of the terminal when there is no "text" in a line. Only where there is some text, Vim uses the background color defined in the colorscheme script. This happens only on Mac. On Windows (XP) all background is printed using the color defined in the colorscheme script when I use the terminal version. Even when I am working in the Cygwin, with the standard shell or mintty, the background is colored accordingly. But doesn't on Mac. This is an odd behavior. So, I always use the default colorscheme when I am working in the Mac shell Vim. Regards, Alessandro Antonello. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
