Hi John, thanks for your help. I have tried several times, but always failed.
1. I first tried to set "abc" in my file to be red as: :match abc /\<yellow\>/ the system seems to be idle and there is no response. 2. I checked help with "match" command and tried its example: :highlight abc ctermbg=green guibg=green :match abc /\<red\>/ still there is no reponse. could you give me some timps? thanks. 在 2014年12月24日星期三UTC+8下午7时08分01秒，JohnBeckett写道： > skyworld wrote: > > normally I use gvim instead of vi.
