I am using newly-installed vim 8.0. My _gvimrc is quite simple but does include various syntax-element color definitions, such as:
hi Constant guifg=DarkRed But these definitions are being over-ridden by something somewhere in the maze of startup files, such that other colors are being applied. I do not explicitly invoke anything related to syntax highlighting in either _vimrc or _gvimrc. I have installed no plugins beyond whatever comes in the Vim installation itself. Why is it that a user's choice of colors would be over-ridden by some file somewhere, one which is presumably meant to *augment* the user's choices, not replace them? And how does one overcome this puzzling behavior? Thank you for your time. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
