Vim And Qkonsole Options

[terryleung83]

i want to ask anyone here can get vim display color(syntax highlight) with qkonsole?
qkonsole dont even display any color(except black and write)
i download the vim full from cacko feed and the vim setting there as well

[terryleung83]

add a little bit more detail
i try vim in qpe terminal and it has least has some different color
i suspect that it's the problem of the terminal rather than vim
but i am not very sure if there is anyway to make qkonsole work

[tml]

Maybe TERM is set to a non-color terminal?

i have tried to set this
export TERM=xterm
but it doesnt work

[tml]

export TERM=xterm

TERM=linux works for me.

[terryleung83]

export TERM=xterm

TERM=linux works for me.

finally , i can make it syntax on by adding "syntax=on" in the .vimrc

I´ve the same problem. I have a SL-C3100 Zaurus using vim via qkonsole and no syntax higlighting possible.

Do you really add "syntax=on" in the .vimrc or "syntax on". The version "syntax on" is actuall set at my .vimrc but it doesn`t work.


Maybe i try "export TERM=linux" this hopefuly it work.



Thanks,

in .profile

export TERM=linux

in .vimrc

set syntax=on

Where do i find .profile to enter "export TERM=linux"? Please could you send me the link or mail me to get the same .vimrc as you have. Only to exclude my .vimrc as bad one.

Where do i find .profile

It's a file in your home directory (/home/zaurus) that is read when using bash as a login shell. From the bash man page:

      When  bash is invoked as an interactive login shell, or as a non-inter-
      active shell with the --login option, it first reads and executes  com-
      mands  from  the file /etc/profile, if that file exists. After reading
      that file, it looks for ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile,
      in  that order, and reads and executes commands from the first one that
      exists and is readable. The --noprofile option may be  used  when  the
      shell is started to inhibit this behavior.

If it's not there yet, simply create it.
