If you don’t know what vim is, don’t worry about it, you probably don’t need to. Also, you’re pretty safe in skipping this post, or any other post with this subject.

You’re leaps and bounds ahead of me in the world of development. I’d love to know what you use, and why. And why you hate vim colors quite so much. 🙂
I have a habit of falling back on vim for quick text edits but use Xcode and Eclipse otherwise.
I find the color schemes in vim (and ls) to be hard to see and a pain to tune.
Ok, fair enough. The default ANSI schemes are pretty atrocious. There’s a reason I’m looking for recommendations. There are some really nice ones out there. But I understand if you’d prefer your Kool-Aid to be clear. 😉

The last good innovation in displays was moving from white on black vt100s to green on black Wyse terminals. We don’t need all these sissy windows and icons!
