tar xvjf vim-7.3.tar.bz2 cd vim73 ./configure;make;sudo make install rehash vim ~/.vimrc
It is running the correct vim binary, isn't it? I.e. /usr/local/bin is in your $PATH before /usr/bin? I think that's where ./configure will put it without --prefix being given. Also...and sorry if this ground has been covered... - Are you using a colour scheme? - Does :verbose hi give any insight? I.e. are the colours being set by different files in the different Vim versions? - Does Vim give the same result for :set term? in each case? - What about :set t_Co? ? - Are your $PATH, $LIBPATH, $TERMINFO, etc. the same in both cases; I had some problems a while ago where different path settings of some kind caused Vim to attempt to use different terminfo libraries as root and as a regular user, and that caused a number of headaches. I hate it when these sorts of things go wrong. It should be simple, but it isn't! Grrr! Ben. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
