I'd like to have vim in graphical mode handle colors (default fg/bg color, 
syntax highlighting) handle it the same as in color terminal mode.

What's the easiest way to do this?  Is there an option, or do I need to change 
my local source?

Where is the code that vim either grabs a cterm of gui color?  I want to set it 
so in gui mode, it grabs the cterm color instead.

I figure this would either be in src/syntax.c, or src/eval.c.

src/syntax.c::highlight_has_attr() uses modec of 'g' for GUI, 'c' for cterm, 
't' for (no color) term.  But, it's just returning if the given attribute 
exists, so it's not what I'm looking for.

src/syntax.c::highlight_color() is where I was sure I found what I needed.  It 
also uses modec, and has code like if(modec == 'g') ... color = HL_TABLE()[id - 
1].sg_gui_fg; ... if(modec == 'c') ... n = HL_TABLE()[id - 1].sg_cterm_fg - 1;

But, I can make the first command in highlight_color() be "exit(0)" and vim 
works just fine in cli or graphical mode.


Ultimately, with the same .vimrc in vim or "vim -g"/"gvim", I just want it to 
look the same.  I'm fine losing the #xxxxxx color ability.  256 colors is fine 
for me.


I've thought about changing the hard-coded and color/*.vim files, removing 
everything gui*= and duplicating the cterm*=.  Perhaps that's an easier way to 
go than changing source.  I figured there would be a "if gui use gui_fg, else 
if cterm use cterm_fg".
