I'm using vim to edit Asterisk configuration files.  The syntax checking makes

I don't mind the default colorscheme used with asterisk.vim syntax file.

How can I modify just the COMMENT color setting within an Asterisk 
configuration file?

I would have even considered copying the /colors/default.vim over and use as a 
template but the default color file doesn't contain any color settings.

Any help appreciated.

* First, identify the color. I have a plugin, hilinks.vim, which you can use :HLT! and then, as you move the cursor about, the syntax and highlighting groups involved show upon the bottom of the display. You can get it from http://www.drchip.org/astronaut/vim/index.html#HILINKS .

* Second, change the color. You can put overrides into $HOME/.vim/after/colors/TheColorschemeNameHere.vim .

* Third, you could use hicolors, available at http://www.drchip.org/astronaut/vim/index.html#HICOLORS, to both create your own modified colorscheme and to check on what your colorscheme is setting your highlighting groups to.
  + to check on your colorscheme with hicolor:  :help hicolors
+ to then edit your colorscheme, creating your own: click with the rightmouse button on whatever highlighting group you wish to change. When done, click on the [WriteColorscheme] button on the colorscheme editor window. You'll be prompted for a new colorscheme name to use.

C Campbell
