[solved] Vim: console and urxvt have different colors

andre.ramaciotti · 2009-03-07 18:13:22

Well, as you can see, vim in console (vc/1) and in urxvt has different colors:

I'd like to have the same colors of console in urxvt (and not the opposite), is there a way?

I don't know from where the colors of urxvt come from. That blue with which is written '#include' and that green/cyan with which is written 'int' aren't even in my .Xdefaults.

TIA

I believe that the console supports 16 colors, and urxvt by default supports a lot more than that (88?). I'm guessing that urxvt is closer to your vim theme than what you're seeing in the console. This, of course, is a guess of what may be happening.

Use only colour 1-15, and have the same colour defined in the vc as in Xdefaults.

The colours in Xdefaults and in the vc are the same, and I'm using the default theme of vim. Is there a way to trick vim so it thinks that urxvt is only 16-colours capable? A $parameter or an option I can set in .vimrc?
