I am on OS X 10.6.2 and am using iTerm as my terminal. When I run Vim, t_Co
gets set to 8
. I want it to be 16
or 256
if I can display that many colors. If I manually set t_Co
to be 16 (i.e. :se t_Co=16
or set t_Co=16
in .vimrc
) everything works fine.
Why doesn't t_Co
get set to the highest available number? Is there some option I should be setting in iTerm or some environment variable I should be setting to make termcap pass the right information to vim
? Is it safe to just override t_Co
in my .vimrc
?
Yeah, I switched over about a month ago. I need to take a look at the new release it is bugging me about. – Chas. Owens – 2010-12-03T02:49:03.037
