| rb007 | I like the desert theme, but I don't like the green highlight color. Is there a way to change just the highlight (visual) color to orange? does anyone know how to change the color of the visual highlight on the desert theme? Or a tutorial on how to make a new color scheme? |
| praetis | copy the theme to a new file in the same directory under a different name, and then change whatever you want about it that directory being ~/.vim/colors |
| rb007 | praetis: thanks... I just found that directory. Can I put my new theme in ~/.vim/ somewhere, or should it go in /usr/wherever ok thanks this is great... just getting vim down to where it is great |
| praetis | type :hi to see all the entities you can highlight |
| rb007 | praetis: thanks |
| praetis | yep, I for one appreciate how easy it is to make custom syntax files np |
| rb007 | I like desert, except for the green highlight |
