I've only noticed this problem in vim so far, but sometimes the text blinks instead of being colored. I don't like blinking text in the console at all, so I figured it would be worth it to just disable it altogether. How do I do this? I haven't been able to find any references to this by googling or looking through the documentation. Even this suggestion to put
in my .vimrc doesn't work. Why aren't these lines just colored for syntax highlighting, anyway? How many colors does the FreeBSD console support? I thought it was at least 256 but apparently something's not working.
Perhaps this is a kernel option. I've never recompiled the FreeBSD kernel with a custom file before, but it shouldn't be too hard (I've also done it successfully on Linux, and I hear it's even easier here).
In case this problem is specific to vim, here is my .vimrc:
Code:
autocmd VimEnter * set vb t_vb=Perhaps this is a kernel option. I've never recompiled the FreeBSD kernel with a custom file before, but it shouldn't be too hard (I've also done it successfully on Linux, and I hear it's even easier here).
