It very much depends on the terminal. Neovim assumes a very recent terminal, it won't work everywhere. It may mess up on some terminals. What I use myself: " Change the cursor color and shape depending on the mode. if &term =~ "xterm" && $SSH_CLIENT == '' let &t_SI = "\<Esc>]12;purple\x7" . "\<Esc>[5 q" try let &t_SR = "\<Esc>]12;darkred\x7" . "\<Esc>[3 q" catch endtry let &t_EI = "\<Esc>]12;royalblue2\x7" . "\<Esc>[2 q" endif -- Why is "abbreviation" such a long word? /// Bram Moolenaar -- b...@moolenaar.net -- http://www.Moolenaar.net \\\ /// \\\ \\\ sponsor Vim, vote for features -- http://www.Vim.org/sponsor/ /// \\\ help me help AIDS victims -- http://ICCF-Holland.org /// -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
