 |
|
Hi,
I'am using vim 6.x and noticed that every time when I search something in a file it hilights the result with a bright yellow color that is very unreadable and annoying. Tried ":syntax off" but this turns off only the colors not the ugly search hilight.
Anyone knows how to get rid of this?
Thanks much
Stefan |

or, to remove it just until the next search,
Or - if you like it really, but want to change the colour, have a look at
Or or change the colour of the search highlight group (for the more adventurous) |

So many options 
Thanks.
What should I do to remove it forever? Put "nohlsearch" in ~/.vimrc ?

No, put :set nohlsearch in it.
I just got used to doing :noh when I see the highlights and don't want them - the highlighting can be useful.

well you can use my approach which is something like:
/dfhkudfshgkghkdf
that tends to get rid of the highlighting, substitute with your own random key clicks |
