I am quite confused on setting
the highlight rules for TabLine{,Fill,Sel}.
I am trying to set options on X11-Linux in a
Suse distro. I'm using version 7.3.831 (because
last I tried 7.4, everything was noticeable
slowed down due to the new regex engine. So
I just stayed at 7.3 for the nonce.
My simplest option was to try to turn
the the foreground tab label *BOLD*.
First try was using gui=bold -- no difference.
(note these options am trying in my color file
where changes to other options change colors
in various highlighting groups).
At the bottom I tried:
hi TabLineSel gui=bold
2nd try was to choose the Bold version of the font
I am using:
hi TabLineSel term=reverse cterm=reverse gui=reverse font=Ubuntu\
Mono\ Bold\ 14
My normal gui font from my '.gvimrc':
set guifont=Ubuntu\ Mono\ 14
I selected the bold font using the gui picker and
displayed it using ":set guifont?".
But I get an error about it not finding the equals sign.
It seems it doesn't like spaces in the font name using backslashes,
and neither double nor single quotes (note:single quotes are
recommended for specifying the highlight colors (from 'syntax.txt'):
To use a color name with an embedded space or other special character,
put it in single quotes. The single quote cannot be used then.
Example:
:hi comment guifg='salmon pink'
I also tried changing the *color*:
hi TabLineSel term=bold cterm=bold guifg=#f020e0
(which works for syntax highlighting, but not for the TabLineSel)
in the gui.
So why am I having problems getting the tab highlighting
controls working in the gui?
Thanks for any insights/helps...

hi TabLineSel term=bold cterm=bold guifg=#f020e0
