Hi Folks:
My question is in regards to Unix color syntax code. This is what I
mean, in many versions of Linux and other versions of Unix, each user
will find within a directory different colored items consistently
indicating folders, files and so on. Also within a program such as
vim it is possible to reset the use of the standard color scheme to
something akin to one's personal taste and manner of working. One can
for example write a dot file manipulating vim to produce line numbers
and unique colors for functions in C or C++.
I'm sure everyone here, in this list is aware of what I'm referring
to. Now to my question:
I notice that in OS X (v.10.3.8) this capability is not active. What
is the sequence of commands I must use or invoke so that I can see
such color syntax as I have described displayed with Terminal and
within vim?
I'd appreciate any clues or ideas or even directions to other sites or
mailing lists discussing this type of thing within Darwin.
For color ls and color vim you need to change your terminal type. The
default vt100 does not show colors. I use tcsh still, so in my
~/.tcshrc I put the following:
setenv TERM xterm-color
alias ls "ls -G"
That will give you color output for the ls command. For vim I have the
following in my ~/.vimrc file:
set listchars=tab:\|\
set wildchar=<Tab>
set background=light
set tabstop=4
set ruler
set showmode
syntax on
set autoindent
set nomesg
set showmatch
set mps+=<:>
set matchtime=1
au FileType fortran set textwidth=72
au FileType c set cindent
" ShowIndent Mode On/Off
map <F2> :call ShowIndent_on_off()<CR>
let indent_mode = 0
func! ShowIndent_on_off()
if g:indent_mode == 0
set list
let g:indent_mode = 1
else
set nolist
let g:indent_mode = 0
endif
return
endfunc
" ShowNumbers Mode On/Off
map <F3> :call ShowNumbers_on_off()<CR>
let number_mode = 0
func! ShowNumbers_on_off()
if g:number_mode == 0
set number
let g:number_mode = 1
else
set nonumber
let g:number_mode = 0
endif
return
endfunc
set pastetoggle=<F4>
